This was interesting. Smoothly rounded, almost pillowy. Hazy and smooth.
I was surprised to see this listed as an IPL as it’s definitely more expressive than I would expect.

CAN: 16 fl oz overpriced. Pull-tab. The name of the beer is basically indistinguishable on the label; they use this awful bubble font that can't be read; I had to look up the brewery's just to figure out what they were calling this. Call it the Three Floyds school of label art.
"Hazy IPL" per their website.
APPEARANCE: Head is white, 2cm in height, and lasts about 3 minutes. Not horribly robust. Could be creamier, fuller, softer, and more enticing.
Body is a turbid dull orange. Appears unfiltered.
Looks nice enough for an IPL.
AROMA: Pulpy. Orange juice. Lime. Mango skin.
Pungently fruity with tropical leanings.
Aromatic intensity is high for an IPL. I don't detect any yeasty notes, alcohol, or off-notes.
TASTE: Matches the aroma, which doesn't make for a great IPL. It's a bit too pulpy to feel balanced, but it's pleasant enough with a nicely assertive hop profile given it's a lager.
TEXTURE: Smooth, pulpy, chewy, uneven, wet, refreshing, and approachable.
OVERALL: Drinkable fare for an IPL, but it lacks the clean drinking character you'd want in the style; I can't see any reason not to filter this except to chase the turbid trend. I can't say it's not a worthwhile beer, but at this price and in this cash-grab 16 oz 4 pack packaging format, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Price never affects my ratings, but this really only be worth regular purchases at $13/6er or less.

We love reviews (150 characters or more)! Check out: How to Review a Beer. You don't need to get fancy. Drop some thoughts on the beer's attributes (look, smell, taste, feel) plus your overall impression. Something that backs up your rating and helps others. Thanks!
