Copper red hue with an off white head. Aroma of rye and other grains. Mild mouthfeel with a slight bitterness on the finish. Do not detect the higher ABV. Good quality beer.

Served in a stemless wine glass

This beer pours a deep ruddy orange color. It is crystal clear and topped with an inch of tan head that leaves spotty lacing.

Sweet and spicy. Light citrus

Sweet upfront. Spicy rye notes in the middle. Surprisingly mellow finish. No bitterness at all. Almost more like a red rye ale than an IPA.

Medium bodied with a smooth mouthfeel

Decent rye beer. I wouldn't call it an IPA. Maybe it is old. If so, then Looking Glass should not be selling it in their cooler. No canned on date. I will go with that it is just not a bitter beer.
