In space, no one can beer you scream. HAHA. I heard that at the movies once but this is real life and you hold in your hand an American IPA brewed with Galaxy hops, for a flavor profile that’s out of this world. Or any world, for that matter. So take a sip, before I run out of space puns.

16 ounce can pours a cloudy orange with heaps of foam. Long lasting and does fine with the lacing.

Getting lots of hops in the smell. Grapefruit, light tropical fruit, mild onion. Quite bitter.

Tastes of grapefruit, onion, only hints of tropical fruit. So bitter but not outside of my comfort zone.

Medium body, light carbonation.

An enjoyable IPA.

Refrigerated 16 oz. aluminum can poured into a snifter. Clear golden with huge off-white head. Aroma is nice herbal hops, medium body, low carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is herbal hops and bitter finish.

Can in StFun’s photoshop contest box. Pours a cloudy orange with small frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is strong pine, grapefruit, rye. Medium mouth, rye, caramel malt, pine, lingering bitterness, ok.

16 oz. can, in a free box from StFun. Brilliant, clear, bronze-orange color, with a big, foamy, off-white head. The nose is bitter orange peel, caramel, rye, and some abrasive resin or pine sap. Sweet and malty up front, with an unpleasantly harsh bitterness that lingers long through the finish. Medium body, acerbic, sticky, and grainy. This is a nicely aromatic IPA, but the flavor is unbalanced. Not too bad, but not my favorite.

Can. Orange, pineapple, mango, caramel malt, and orange peel aroma. Golden yellow with large off-white head. Lightly sweet earthy tropical fruit, caramel malt, and moderately bitter pine/grapefruit peel flavor. Nice body. Really good - best canned offering from 450 North so far.

bottle - Pours amber with a white head. It smells of citrus and tropical fruit accented hops and caramel malt. The taste is similar with moderate bitterness and pleasant fruity notes. Medium bodied. Quite good.

Draft: Clear amber with a small, creamy, white head. Caramel and berry aroma. Taste is caramel malt, orange-malt, berry.......with a leafy/peel bitter. Solid, but average at best. Nothing new or exciting in this one...but OK.
