ABV: 6.9% IBU: - Ticks: 10
A New England-Style IPA brewed with Lemondrop and Citra and bursting with rich fruit flavor and velvet soft mouthfeel. This beer uses a similar malt bill and strain of yeast as our Rabbit Rabbit Double IPA, but features a slightly different mix of hop additions; in other words, it’s the lower alcohol “offspring” of Rabbits, with delicious notes of sweet melon, meyer lemon, and ripe passion fruit.

Best of the session at this bar, and not just because it's clearly named after the worshipful Deutsche Bahn Baureihe 218. Normal people may resume now. Exactly as advertised. Delicious!

Draught at the brewery, 9/9/21.
Lightly hazy, soft-golden-brass with a small, white head showing low-to-moderate retention.
Fruity nose with light bubble gum and plentiful pear/apple alongside juicier citrus. Gets a bit intense with the ester character and an unexpected pine resin-like note emerges, as well....
I usually love Lamplighter's IPAs, especially their NEIPAs, but this was just unbearable. However the hops were done in this, I hated it. Punchy/resinous/twangy. Completely undrinkable for me. Thick-ish, creamy texture adds sluggishness with more bread/dough character and bubble gum heaviness to top it all off. Yikes.

Pours hazy gold into a shaker. Bright white head with good retention recedes to skim surface. Grapefruit and lemon aromas. Soft with marshmallow and dry aspirin upfront turning to hot mango in the dry lasting finish.

Taster pour at the source. Appearance is cloudy, dark yellow-light brown with no sparkle, fair ring of off-white head, good retention and nice leggy lacing. Aroma is grape, strong, sweet citrus (mainly lemon). Taste is grapefruit over citrus. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, a decent beer whose lemon aroma is a standout feature.
