Crystal clear light golden coloured body with a very thick, five to six centimetre tall tan and golden head on top that fades very slowly. Aroma of crisp grain, lemons and citrus, a dash of metal and astringency with some clean malt, yeast and breadiness, but interestingly enough - not much hops, alcohol or sugars in the nose - how can that be possible? Medium-bodied; Very deep metallic astringency at first that has some alcohol burn and a dash of floral aspects as well, with a slight herbal bite and finally some of the hop flavour notes come out and leave a bit of bitterness at the end, but again, interestingly - no real malt body or sweetness here. Aftertaste is fairly clean, especially for the style - some nice depth in the dry side of things and the light bitterness and astringency, but the hops are minimal as well as sweetness and there is no fruits here at all. Overall, all things considered, definitely not what I was expecting, but pretty nice! I liked the minimal bitterness, not clolyingly sweet and the crisp flavours were refreshing! Great to sample super fresh and this one tasted like nine per cent alcohol, not way more! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in McLean, Virginia on 21-July-2021 for US$4,99, packaged on 01-March-2021 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 15-August-2021.

Radagast rating Radegast! Draft at the Virginia Beach brewery. Poured a very clear deep, golden yellow color, small white head. Some light boozy notes. Alcohol is there, but it's well integrated. Huge resin notes are in here. Huge hop presence. Pine finish.

Tall boy can. Clear, honey golden with lace. Nose is honey, citrus, biscuits, guava. Soft body. Big honey flavor, lemon, tropical fruit. A bit too sweet and almost syrupy in the old IIPA way.

Tasty, sweeping tones of honey and caramel set against tangerine, melon, stone fruit, earth, and pine. Grainy undercurrent with hints of toast and resin. Finishes moderately dry and bitter; pronounced alcohol presence is expected, and actually plays nicely with the underlying sweetness. Burial's triple IPA still sets the standard, but Radegast makes a fun, if imposing, beast.
