What the brewers say

“Lean, assertive IPA with big aromatics. Clean and clear.”

What our panel thought

“Hop-forward nose dominated by orange, pineapple, and pine with some light stone-fruit notes beneath with support from the medium-low bready malt. Moderate pineapple notes in the flavor contrast with the medium juniper notes, but pleasantly. Medium bittering is smooth into a fruity finish with pineapple and a slight apricot note showing up late.”

What our editors thought

“Light mix of tropical funk and dank notes in the nose. Sip is light, clean with a soft sneaky bitterness that underplays initially before asserting in the finish.”
