Clear yellow amber brew with tall, sticky foam in the GameCraft Pilsner glass. A different sort of aromatics with something like green chile along with the citrus. Deeply fruity with a peppery finish. Relatively sweet but adequate touch of acidity for a crisp ending. Flavors of ripe melon with a squeeze of lime, I even think of a dose of jalapenos, both that vegetal flavor and the slight heat.

This is really an outstanding use of hops with out ABuse. Clean and richly flavored but minimal bitterness. Some pencil shavings and a hint of stems in the aftertaste. From the 16 oz can purchased at San Diego Wine & Beer Co. Dated 08/08/24.

On tap at Luce Bar & Kitchen in San Diego, into a pint glass

Vintage pale appearance - yellow-tan, healthy carb with a head that never fully dissipates.

Nose is floral and honey-sweet; pungent. Some notes of lemon pith linger.

Sharp, citrusy hops at the front. Suggestions of lemon pepper, raspberry, honey-sweetened tea. A lot going on, but it’s so well dialed in it’s hard to parse individual ingredients. Medium, clean finish.

Knockout IPA, punchy and dangerously easy to throw back.
