jgb9348 (9218) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - APR 6, 2018Hazy deep copper and light ruby-tinted amber coloured body with a nice and relatively long-lasting off-white head, about three centimetres tall. Aroma of strawberries, light sour and tart notes, some very subdued and minimalistic hops with a ton of sugars near the end, some from lactose, but a lot of fruit-based sugars it seems. Medium-bodied; Hoppy notes at first that hit with some low alpha acids then show a touch of grain, but end with some strawberry, raspberries and a dose of the sugar at the end, with sweetness as the main contender at the end. Aftertaste is rich and flavourful with some dry, saison-like notes from the grain with a dose of sweetness as well as a balanced bitter flavour, which is nice and complex. Overall, a nice and enjoyable beer that is far less of an IPA and far more of a fruit-beer, but regardless, complex and enjoyable without too much fuss or bitterness in bad ways. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from GlenRo Spirit Shoppe in Monroe, Connecticut on 10-March-2018 for US$4,99 (3 for $15 bin) sampled at home in Washington on Easter Sunday, 01-April-2018.
DrSilverworm (11039) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JAN 8, 20183/16/2016 -- from backlog notes: Awesome strawberry, creme aroma, mild herbal hops. Great aftertaste. Crisp, lighter carbonation. Refreshing, easy-drinking, smooth. Moderate-plus sweet, mild bitter, mild tart. Bit too sweet of a middle to do a bigger portion.
vandc01 (468) - North Branch, USA - MAY 8, 201722oz bomber poured at home.
Pours an extremely light IPA - almost like a lager.
Refreshing beer - I can see drinking a lot of this on a hot summer day. Clear, crisp and easy to drink
andrewje41 (6568) - Monroe, Washington, USA - DEC 9, 2016Draft pour pint at Hop and Hound. A golden yellow pour with a thin fizz head. A melon and citrus fruit heavy aroma. Very inviting. Juicy citrus fruit, blended with a sweet cream flavor. Vanilla, cream, melon, citrus, slightly bittering late hop profile. Slight funk. Delicious, unique IPA here. Yum!
edgallow (5017) - nashville, Tennessee, USA - OCT 29, 2016Draft pours amber with a off white head. Aroma of berries, citrus and grains. Taste is very very nice.
phaleslu (14680) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - OCT 4, 201622 oz. bottle from seeswo - thanks again, Chris! Pours a somewhat cloudy bright gold with a small white head with an island of film and ring that laces the glass partially. The hops are bright and sharp and herbal, with mint and citrus zest, sawdust, pale malts, summery florals, and a dash of perfume. Light-bodied, with moderate to medium carbonation and a clean, bright, moderately bitter mouthfeel. Good IPA that I’d like to try a wee bit fresher.
jcr (3295) - Jasper, Indiana, USA - AUG 17, 2016Bottle. Hazy golden body with a fizzy white head, diminishing. Aroma of citrus, toasted grain, lemon and light canned corn. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, creamy texture, lively carbonation. Tastes like a cream ale with DMG. In this case, the creamy texture heightens the unpleasant flavors. Not a fan.
Ktwse (6833) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JUN 20, 2016Pours hazy orange amber with low white head. Aroma of strawberries, citrus, peach and light apricot. Taste is mellow sweet with a light berry tart note followed by a mild bitter finish. Light and smooth body with soft carbonation.
DocLock (11543) - Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA - JUN 8, 2016Bomber from Whole Foods PM. Pours hazy straw with off-white head that laces well. Nose is juicy wet hops, citrus, tangerine. Tastes hoppy, wheaty, somewhat sweet, with late berry notes.
ajnepple (12995) - Lakewood, CO, Colorado, USA - JUN 4, 2016On tap at El Bait Shop. Pale golden-yellow appearance with a white head. Aroma of strawberries, fruity hops, vanilla and light bread. Similar flavor, adding light hop bitterness. Average body with a smooth, creamy feel. Pretty tasty, interesting beer overall.
