Step up and fly a flag for what’s next in IPA. We’re doing things differently around here, freeing silky, luscious citrus and ripe melon notes to revolutionize your taste buds. We do it with our special no boil take on the brewing process where fruit forward Idaho 7 and Mosaic hops spend all of their time creating a pillowy soft, juicy experience and no time at all generating bitterness. The result is the most crushable, hazy IPA in the game.

12 oz. Can. Look is pale yellow, with a hint of orange, no head. Smell of musty laundry, hint of grapefruit. Taste is citrusy, nothing prominently. Leaves a drying mouthfeel. Got this in a 12 pack with 4 different varieties. I would not seek this one out.

Well I have been having such a miserable success finding any new beers that I like, that I am pleased with this beer. It is not bitter at all - that's good - and as described, it has some melon tones to it.
I think I could drink this, although it does not knock my socks off!

Average beverage ;) par excellance. Nothing special in carbonation, taste or aftertaste. You drink this stuff and forget it instantly. The good in Var-packs is you know what not to buy very quickly...

APPEARANCE: Foggy lemonade yellow, with substantial white head and attractive web of lace.
AROMA: Citrus and tropical fruit (pineapple, mango, orange). Nice!
TASTE: Juicy hops, easy-drinking in a medium body. Almost sweet with the malts nearly overtaking three hops. Decent but not perfect.

Best by 12/12/23. Poured into a BA 25th Ann teku — hell yeah!!
A: Bright yellow with 2 finger stark white foamy head with good retention and solid lacing down the glass.
S: Aroma is moderate intensity with a lot of melon, pineapple, and lemon-lime. Esters are low-intensity and light fruit gum.
T: Flavor is a pleasant citrus lemon-lime and green melon character with some pineapple and orange soda aftertaste. Esters are low-intensity and support the overall fruity flavor. No alcohol presence. Bitterness is low.
M: Feel is typical for style with light-medium body, high carbonation, and soft finish with a bit of dryness from the citrus hops.
O: Well-done but rather cookie cutter hop profile for a hazy IPA. Good but not distinctive.
**My first tasting was affected by a previous beer as it was heavy with a grape nuts malt character that I don’t get when it’s the first beer. So I raised some scores and revamped the review.

It’s not a bad beer, it’s just a boring beer. Clear in color with thing wispy head. Mild citrus aroma with mild lemon tropical flavor. Thin mouthfeel but crispy. Very average
