Haze Frehley
Levity Brewing Co.

 

A trial which began by emptying the entire contents of a pint can into a clear glass liter mug. An aroma like grapefruit hits as soon as the can is cracked open. The pour shows a liquid light orange-amber in color. It's hazy, yet relatively bright. Very little off-white head was produced by the pour. The initial hit to the nose seems to have mostly disappeared after the pour. The taste is mildly of citrus, but not as bitter as grapefruit or lemon juice. But, that is practically all there is to taste. The mouthfeel is thin and it's not backed by anything tasty from the grains. Scant is the glass lacing and the very modest head lasted not long. This is such a lightweight in terms of taste and body, it's hard to find anything more specific to complain about. It's as inoffensive as it is unremarkable. The ABV is nicely hidden, so this might make a treat, with its thin body and hint of citrus, on a hot and dry day. There probably are few other times this would work.

Had as part of a flight offering at the Altoona, tap room.
LOOK: Highly hazed lemon colored beer with a white head and good lacing.
AROMA: Citrus and mostly grapefruit. Sharp tart hops.
TASTE: Presence of Mosaic hops render a moderate hop impact. Grapefruit is most prominent.
Finishes dry with bread malts in the after taste.

Overall felt like its characteristics mirrored the New England IPA style.
I would get it again.

Purchased as part of a 4 pack from the Indiana, PA taproom on 9/9/23.

L- Very hazy orang-ish golden color.

S- Very nice ripe tropical fruit.

T- Tropical fruit upfront, well balanced
with a hop bite.

F- Really lush mouthfeel. Fine carbonation

O- A fantastic IPA! I really like this!

9/29/22 BIRTHDAY BEER! Trip to Indiana, PA for my birthday pub crawl.

Another huge hit here! Mango and fresh squeezed lemon on the aroma. A beautiful mirror of sweetness and bitterness combine to form this lovely mash up!

Pours an opaque pale orange with two fingers of fluffy white foam. Aroma is orange zest, mango, and tangerine. It carries a notable grainy note, which pokes holes in the tropical fruit curtain. Flavor profile is orange zest, tangerine, lemon, and mild grassy hops. It has a raw grain, bready quality that undercuts the tropical fruits. Some late sugar adds additional sweetness. Mouth feel has an uneven effervescence, which carries a light grit through it. Thickness is medium. Overall, a little bumpy around the edges, but the core is solid. It lacks smoothness, or evenness, which is its major flaw.

Served in a 15.5oz Spiegelau tulip from a 16oz can.

 

 

 

 

 

Growler

Pours hazy lemon orange, head is white and pillowy, retains well.

Smells of fresh Mandarin oranges and grapefruit juice, hints of cracker malt and piney hop.

Flavor of cracker malts, grapefruit juice, orange zest, and herbal hops.

Medium body with fizzy carbonation on the roof of the mouth.

Decent NE style IPA, bright flavor and clean aroma. Pours beautifully, drinks easy. Flavor could use a little more layering and slightly more sweetness. Definitely worth trying.
