The Lean IPA is a West Coast style IPA. Easy drinking, with tropical notes. It is smooth, well balanced, this one goes down fast, so watch out.

New Jersey brewery tick number 180. 16 ounce can from Libby’s Liquors. Hazed honey gold color. Puffy beige head. Mild citrus fruit aroma hints at grapefruit. Bittersweet citrus is balanced by a bready malt backbone. Body is on the light side. Dry peppery finish is typical of the style.

Draft, flight pour, second from right in flight, at The Cranbury Inn, 6/19/26. Mostly clear gold color with a goodbye white head. Herbal, grassy, grainy, and citrus zest. Sweet, slight malt. Fairly balanced. Drinkable. Maybe a hint thin, but it has a good mouthfeel. Pretty good overall.

Can, from a liquor store in New Jersey. Pours faintly cloudy dark yellow with a small foamy light beige head, malt aroma with faint citrus, adequate carbonation, medium bitter malt forward taste with faint citrus peel-pineapple flavor, thin body, long finish. Decent IPA.
