A lo-cal IPA that is slight in cals and carbs with mighty hop flavor! Slightly Mighty has all the flavor and tropical aromas of a world class IPA, but with only 95 calories, 3.6g carbs, 1g protein and 0g fat. Brewed with locally-grown barley, and a touch of monk fruit that delivers body and complexity but adds zero calories or carbs, Slightly Mighty is light-bodied and offers a lingering balanced sweetness.

Pours a dirty straw color with a finger of head. The nose has citrus notes but it is not that potent. The flavor is fairly mild as well. This falls in the same category as session IPAs - nothing bad, but nothing to write home about.

12 oz can sampled on 7/4/2023. Poured into a plastic cup. Straw color. Nice head of foam. no aroma that i could detect so thankfully it wasn't skunked. Overall a very decent beer.

12 oz can - best by June 2023
Look - murky, straw color with a gold hue, soapy white head, decent lacing left behind
Smell - hops, floral, fruity
Taste - herbal, citrus rind, sweet finish
Feel - light body, medium carbonation, sweet and dry finish
Overall - Very good brew for a low Cal, low abv option. Great use of the monk fruit to achieve this. It's different but strangely good. Certainly worth checking out and I'd drink it again too. So in the spirit of pairing good jams with good brews, after you knock out 50 crunches with your ab roller, crank up So What'Cha Want by Beastie Boys and enjoy while you're getting in tip top shape.

Best lo cal IPA out there…all the previous reviews are correct…this is my go to for an afternoon or dinner IPA…unfair to compare to full metal IPA, but even so it compares well with some 6%ers…nice and hoppy, dry, good bitterness and no funky aftertaste from the monk fruit.
Not a thick one and wouldn’t want that at this abv so great with a meal or pre dinner pint.
Highly recommended…best of the low Abv’s I’ve had.

For what it is, an excellent effort! Will gladly stock up.
For an IPA/DIPA/etc lover on keto, it gives me a good dose of bitter beer face :)
* Better than Lagunitas Daytime
* Significantly better than Omission
I feel like a little extra "food chemistry" could add some mouthfeel. Needs a tiny bit more viscosity.
Found at Central Market, Poulsbo, WA
