Super Session #2 is designed to be a light and refreshing beer with low alcohol, yet the full hop character of a Session IPA. Each beer in our Super Session series is brewed with the same malt base and specialty malts but features a different single-hop variety. Super Session #2 is brewed with copious amounts of Amarillo hops. It has a distinct citrus character with notes of lemon lime and orange.

Can: Poured a bright pale yellow color ale with large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of floral hops with light citrusy notes. Taste is a mix of citrusy hops with light hay flavours. Body is light with good carbonation. Interesting and highly drinkable but did not have the hops kick I was expecting.

42nd Floor Tasting. A can thanks to Paul. Light haze on this pale gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light and soft, decent fine carbonation. Very light and clean pale malts. Floral sweetness in to piney hops. Hop spice. Trace of pineapple. Mellow lemon and a trace of tropical fruits. Light airy finish. Very nice indeed!

GABF. A bunch of pours from the can. Pretty clear golden yellow appearance with an off white head. Dank and pine and spicy. Good body. Some tropical fruits. Great... or as I wrote in my notes "dank as balls, fuck yeah." I’d love to get buzzed quick on this bullshit.

Can at home in CT. picked up yesterday in VT. Pours clear gold with a big, frothy white he’d. Lots of zesty and pithy citrus in the aroma, lemon, tangerine, grapefruit. Light sweet flavor, very dry, with plenty of rindy bitterness, some clean minerality, grapefruit pith, faint pine. Light in body with active carbonation. Wonderfully clean and dry on the finish, with further minerals, pithy and rindy citrus, mellow pale malt sweetness. Outstanding stuff. Exceedingly drinkable.
