Our Deadhead IPA Series melds the strong vibe of music we love with the beer we love to drink, elevating both into a higher state of consciousness. Our Soundboard Session Hazy IPA is a melody of Citra and Simcoe hops playing off light but balanced malt, for a sublimely mixed beer that is sessionable and blissful music to all the senses. Cheers!

lightly hazed golden pour with a white head. Light fruity medley of lemon, pineapple, twist of lime, sweetish malty backing, light to medium body, light bitter hoppy close. Ok.

6 week old pint can A: Fairly hazy, sallow dishwater yellow with a short quick head. S: Dry bitter grapefruit, faint tart citrus and sweet wafer cookie. T: Woody seltzery notes immediately dash all hopes of malt balance. Hops follow the nose with nice bitter grapefruit pith and zest. M: Light and clean with no hop burn and fine lively carbonation. O: Not truly BAD but seriously, is no one able to get this style right?

Can from Systembolaget. Nice Hoppy aroma. Very light grassy haze look. Quite fresh. Nothing remarkable but decent session.

Overactive white head initially grew before leaving a good creamy cover on a hazy turbid lemon coloured body. Zesty aroma with pine, bitter citrus & confectionery. Medium bodied, sharp over the tongue with a clean dry back. Tastes us much as the aroma with grass bitter hops, citrus, grapefruit & pith with long tangy finish.
