A bit thin bodied, decent hopiness, and a bit of citrus.
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6
Bottle pour into nonic pint glass from Greg & Jane's Beer and Wine. Appearance is cloudy orange-light brown with minimal sparkle, ephemeral finger-width off-white head and no lacing. Aroma is caramel malt, mildly astringent citrus. Taste is mild tart fruit, bread and caramel malt--a bit unfinished tasting. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, lively carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, not sure exactly what they were going for here. Too malty for an IPA of any era, really. No born-on date so hard to know if it was just old or what. Not terrible but sub par across the board.
