Canned On: 03.31.25

Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice hazy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, guava), pretty nice pine/diesel like. The taste is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, guava), pretty nice pine/diesel like. Medium Body, ABV is hidden very nicely, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty beer.

L: Pours a pale lemon juice yellow that is slightly hazy with a medium fizzy white head and few patches of lacing.

S: Sweet and slightly tart lemon, orange and some other citrus, balanced out nicely by a hoppy herbal note and some ripe fruit.

T: Lots of lemon and lemon peel, with some tart. Not very sweet for a hazy but overall a very nice hazy

F: Smooth creamy mouthfeel, medium body

O: A very enjoyable hazy

Great smooth taste and feel. Easy to drink. Not very bitter but full of flavor.

Clear amber brew with adequate foam in the Zundert chalice. Funky and fruity aroma with citrus and something earthy. Lively and light bodied in the mouth, but then oddly syrupy as it slides down the throat. Deeply orange and orange peel tasting with an acidic finish. There's an odd fruit juice flavor I can't quite describe but it's not something I like. Aftertaste, or at east the sensation on the tongue, is woody. Moderate bitterness. This is a big-hopped and average sort of IPA. From the 16 oz can dated08/13/25.

On tap at Stratford Inn, Falls Church, VA

Copenhagen 23/12 2025. 47,3 cl can from Øltanken web-shop. Pink can with a little black square with simple almost abstract rendering of a mountain, a sea and a setting sun.

Pours almost opaque unclear yellow with a mid-sized white head. Stable. Settles as paper thin layer of foam stretching to cover the surface of the beer. Clinging to the sides of the glass. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a sweet odor of stone fruits mingling with a dry scent of citrus fruit. Seet peach and apricot. Passion fruit. Lemon and lime. Tart. Dry vibe.

Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, lively and tingling texture.

Flavor is fairly intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a strong citric bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter Lingers for a while. Finish is dry.

Nice and dry specimen.

 

 

Draft at Beer BBQ Shop in St. Peter's. Poured a clear, golden orange color with a small, white head of foam. It left sudsy lacing. It smelled of orange, grapefruit, caramel and resin. Nice citrusy taste with toasted caramel and a sharp bitterness.

 

Poured from a 16oz can

On the pour, 1 finger of bone white head with good retention forms on top of a partially hazy straw gold body.

Aroma is your standard, fruity, resinous hop aroma. Nothing out of the ordinary, but it is very clean with a light sweetness.

Flavor follows the aroma, but is more mild. There is a floral sweetness present, and the bitterness is surprisingly light. Super refreshing.

The feel is full but smooth. For what it is the finish is medium-long, but mild amd soft, similar to the flavor.

Overall this is a super solid and honestly more unique than expected IPA. The flavor isn't like most with a smooth and sweet floral and herbal note without an overwhelming bitterness. This is a tasty beer.

 

Pours almost clear, light head that laces ok. Faint nose of sweat socks, luckily taste doesn't follow. Taste light bitterness and pithy, medium carbonation. A decent ipa, nothing outstanding or offensive, easy to drink.

Aroma is fruit/floral hops and mild/medium sweetness. The flavor is fruit, malts/grains, slightly oily and a tropical/big citrus/grapefruit hop finish.

 

Clear, golden color; dense carbonation; thick and lasting head, white with fine-bubble sudsiness; rocky, volcano crater-like look; fat rings of foam mark the glass. A somewhat perky aroma; delicate floral floral and grassy notes; soft fruitiness; light honeydew melon. Great flavor; lightly sweet maltiness with a a sublime deft bit of orange and red grapefruit; moderate overall bitterness. Medium bodied; lightly sticky on the palate; semi-dry overall.

It has been ages since I've had an Outer Range India pale ale, specifically one classified as 'west coast-style'. While I wouldn't put it up there with some classic California brewers (e.g., Russian River and Pizza Port), this one is pretty good overall.
