Bright aroma of citrusy hops. Taste is fairly mild without an initial hop bite. Flavor then rushes in full of hops with some moderate maltiness in background. Hop flavor fades slowly into a long lingering hop aftertaste.
Canned on 9/10/2025, drank on 2/21/2026, so at 5 months not that great for an IPA. Would love to try this fresher.
Slight sweet caramel malt aroma with a complement of flowery hops. Taste is equally flavorful hops and malt. No hop bite. Leaned residual slightly bitter edge of hops on a solid, easy base of malt and yeast.
Sweet aroma of hops and yeast. Smooth taste, with a slight taste of hops. Finishes cleanly work a hint of the alcohol (8.6% ABV), but a very smooth aftertaste of clean malt.
Faint sweet malt aroma. Hits the palate fairly mild, with a mix of caramel malt and hops. Finishes pretty cleanly with a hint of hops in the background.
Canned 5/13/2025, drank on 12/27/2025. Surprisingly still very tasty.
Aroma of hops, slight hint of malt in background. Taste is fairly smooth with a combination of a lot of hop flavor and some dark malt. Aftertaste is slight lingering malt flavor intermixed with hops in the background.
Sweet aroma of bright, fruity hops. Nice moderate hop bite that transitions to a blend of hops and yeast flavors. Finishes fairly crisp with lingering hop flavors on the roof of the mouth.
Strong sweet aroma of hops like ripe fruit. Chunky fruit flavor hits the palate and then a mix of malt and stone fruit hop flavor. Aftertaste is an even mix of hops, malt, and a bit of yeast.
Faint aroma of hops and a bit of caramel malt. Slightly crisp hop bite that quickly fades and a wave of caramel malt comes in. Next comes a good clean malt taste that is fairly balanced, finishes clean. Wonder how the hop flavors might change if fresher.
No big alcohol presence, surprising it’s 9.5% ABV.
Bright hop aroma with some resin aspect. Flavor is a mix of moderate hops and a bit of malt. Finishes with mixture of hop flavors to a final lingering hop aftertaste that’s slightly raw/greens.
Canned 6/30/25, drank on 9/8/25.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
