….and now, the Jabba the J IPA, a "whoda eeda whookie IPA", as Jabba would say, and it's 6.0% ABV. (Why the name? Matt and his gf has just seen "Hunger Games" and thought of the bird called "Jabber-jay", yet wanted to obscure it a bit and conflated it with the Star Wars Jabba, who's actually an H. Just more of the Oliphant's inspired nonsense.)
Appearance: Highly hazed, bright golden/orange coloring. Large and lasting, snowy white head, leaving lace. Looks fantastic.
Aroma: soft citrus and pithy pine. Grapefruit, orange, and forest floor. Slice of lime, splash of mango.
Taste: Ah, yes. Once on the tongue, it's a hoppy blast and an utter delight. Bright and lively hop attack, awash in citrus zest. Hop bitterness brings as astringent urgency next, which is soon whisked away and sent off softly. A smooth one this, and especially delicious. Medium bodied, with a long, fruity finish.
I forgot which hops are in this, but I seem to remember that it was all of the good ones. Additionally, this one is a dream to drink down. I'm practically in love with it.

It's mild, it's an ale. It's boring as hell.
14 dollars worth of what is essentially SNPA.
