In space, no one can beer you scream. haha. I heard that at the movies once. But this is real life, and you hold in your hand an American IPA brewed with Galaxy hops, for a flavor profile that's out of this world. Or any world, for that matter. So take a sip, before I run out of space puns.

Little too bitter. Not a bad IPA just not my style IPA.

Very nice IPA (received from a Brewster Club shipment) for those who like a clean, bitter finish. I think the review below who called it a malt bomb must have had a bad batch and in no way does this beer "suck." IN any case, not super fruity, but a hint of citrus, well balanced and nice mouthfeel - light and smooth without a lot of fizz. Would be happy to drink again.

16 ounce can pours a cloudy orange with heaps of foam. Long lasting and does fine with the lacing.
Getting lots of hops in the smell. Grapefruit, light tropical fruit, mild onion. Quite bitter.
Tastes of grapefruit, onion, only hints of tropical fruit. So bitter but not outside of my comfort zone.
Medium body, light carbonation.
An enjoyable IPA.

There's something very "off" about this beer. Smells okay, but tastes awful. Super astringent and a strange medicinal bitterness. Nope.

I can't imagine this beer is supposed to taste like a total malt bomb based on the name and the words on the label. This can is probably very old, but without proper dating anywhere to be found, I just have to assume that this beer sucks and is not hoppy at all and tastes like bitter sorghum. Don't buy!

16 oz can. Pours medium hazy orange amber, thick fluffy head that lasts. Grapefruit aroma. Up front taste is fairly balanced, light bready malt and citrus peel hops. Hops take over, strong grapefruit peel finishes and lasts a little too long. Some weedy earthiness there as it warms. Medium soft mouthfeel. Got this as an extra, decent IPA with big bitter finish.
