Can into IPA Glass

Look: Hazy pale yellow body, pouring a frothy two finger head which quickly dissipated to a thick cap

Smell: Juicy, slightly sweet, lemon and orange. Heavy pine note there too, Theres a bready malt note in the background as well. Medium strength nose

Taste: Sweet, and juicy orange with lemon peel. swallow brings the mellow bitterness and a punch of pine and herbally hops flavor. As this fades a nice crackery malt comes through, carrying along some citrus and pine with it to a mellow finish

Feel: Medium bodied, with moderate carbonation. Sticky aftertaste, with a smooth finish

Overall: Citrusy and piney beer. Pretty one dimensional in that manner but overall good.

Served in a snifter glass from the can.

Appearance: hazy body coming off yellow. White head which rose half a fingers length off the body.

Smell: Pine like aroma which dissipates very quickly.

Taste: Smooth malt and an overdose of hops.

Mouth: Medium carbonation with a very sticky body.

Overall: nice grab from my brother. He thought I would like it and i did. Very refreshing in this warm weather.

From a 16oz can, undated. Purchased at the brewery 12/03/21. Served in an IPA glass.

Pours a hazy, dull orange with two fingers of pouffy head. Retention is excellent, leaving a creamy cap and a heavy blanket of bubbly lacing.

Nose is relatively nondescript, thinly sweet and citrusy. Orange, thin tea.

Taste is in line with the nose, dilute Tang, soda cracker and weak tea.

Feel is thin, seltzer-like and drying, relatively light bodied with zesty carbonation.

Overall, unmemorable. Comes off as a fairly unremarkable APA at a significantly lower ABV than stated.

Soft and pale yellow body, hazy and creamy looking; thick, frothy white head; sticky bits of foam adhere to the glass. Fresh citrus fruit aroma; orange and banana. Fine, freshly squeezed tangerine and orange flavor; slight biscuit malt backbone; citrus juicy with a low-key hop bitterness. Medium-heavy body; very mild acidity and citrus tanginess; a mild bite.

What a glorious thing to get a hazy IPA that actually smells like fresh citrus and not stale, pithy citrus rinds. And the balance of flavors and overall mouthfeel are quite palatable. A very well crafted hazy IPA...
