This is the first review of this beer on BA. Here's another one from the Casa order back in June 2020.

Pours a hazy yellow. This might be better classified as a hazy ipa, because it looks like one of those trubby viscous ipas, and it does in fact have flaked oats and wheat. The aroma pops good with pine and pineapple, indicative of both Chinook and Galaxy hops.

Taste had Chinook headbutting the flaky wheat and oat combination, with a sturdy barley contingent as well. More bitterness and hop/alcohol burn than expected for style, but this is one of those tweener subgenre style beers I think. At 7.7% you're hovering around a 1.5-2.0 ipa (dipa). This might be a hop scenario where a more traditional ipa setting would work better.

I enjoyed these and the sticker is all faded on the way out to Pitt Dam. But it seemed like the others in the box were slightly better. Tough to justify another 4 pack at $5 per can. Good enough for once.
