Light Speed is a super session hazy IPA coming in at 4% ABV and only 95 calories. This beer packs a hoppy punch and depth of flavour that belies its modest stature. Packed with new wave hops from the Pacific north west of America this pocket rocket of a beer hits you hard with a fruity, citrussy and piney onslaught.

Pours hazy yellow gwith a small head. The aroma is citrus (fruits) and sweets/candy, somewhat artifical. Long lingering taste of fruits jelly, almost like Red Bull. You could taste the added flavourings (I'll deduct 5 points for that). Not convinced.

330ml can from the Brewdog advent calendar. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is tropical citrus fruits and piney hops. The flavour is moderate to light bitter and sweet, with a fresh, crisp, light pineapple, mango, slightly watery, light piney hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.

So, my can says brewed is Ohio WTF? Hey, I want the one from Scotland, considering my forefathers. Green can from an interesting cool advent calendar which my youngest daughter sent me. Bless her soul! I assume its hazy pale yellah like most silly IPA, especially a session. The initial smell is domestic skunk cabbage session hops. Beginning taste, right from the can, is same. Yes, just another of 200,000 trillion session IPA out there; which taste pretty much is just another one of a Brazilian IPA out there; oops, I mean trahzillion. Don't care about hops nor bitter beer.There you have it. Never could figger out what is so desirable about a beer that hides that fresh unhopped flavor. The best beers need no preservatives in them, and this includes bitter hops. Go fish. To be honest, at least there is some carbonation in this.

33 cl. can shared with Hilde @ home, bought online @ Brewdog, beer 13 of the 2021 advent calendar.
Hazy pale yellow with a thin white head. Nice fruity aroma reminding me of lychees, melon and citrus. Sweet aroma with a low bitter finish. Thin bodied but that is almost a given with these kind of low alcohol IPA's, would be interesting to taste a full strength version of this hop combination.

Pours hazy pale gold with a small white head. The aroma is very fruity with mangoes standing out to me. The flavor is juicy with mangoes and citrus. Bitterness is low. The malt is light, but this beer is better than most of these low calorie brews.

Pfirsich und Ananas in der Nase. Wässrig herb-fruchtiger Beginn, süffig aber dünn, was man beim voluminösen Geruch nicht denkt. Erfrischend, wenig herb, leicht fruchtiger Abgang. Okay. 8/8/11/9/9/9

Easy to drink with a fruity back. Passion fruit there, grain with a mild and fruity finish. Yeast, floral hops, mild watery in the back. Easy to drink with pineapple and passion fruity. Very refreshing dry.
