19.2oz can @ final beer tasting, Chez Sophie, Aug 24. Thanks Jeremy for this. Misty gold, large white head. Rosey sweet, orangey, hoppy bitter.. decent misty IPA offering but lacks bite and a full bodied sweetness expected of such a strong American IPA.

Monday 5th August 2024, the last Minutemat led Shrewsbury Beer Gathering, five guys, loads of beer and bollox. I brought this UK pint can back from the US to share, cheers me! Golden body, not too hazy, but hazed non-the-less, white topping. Hoppy, fruity and fairly bitter, certainly an orange like twang to it. Liked it, our first beer of the session.

Can. Pours a somewhat hazy orange hue with a medium white head. A light sweet citrus nose. Sweet oranges, some bitter tangerines, very smooth. Pretty solid.

Stovepipe can from Haggen's, Everett, WA, bb 24/jun/23
Hazy blond colour; medium head. Mild hop aroma. Ood body, a bit oily, a bit too much alcohol,, the malt base is a bit boring, not as chalky/creamy as true NEIPAs, but still too muffled by the oats; ok bitterness.
Ok beer, but not very bright.

Amber, slight haze. A stewed fruit sort of thing, sticky malts, slightly biscuity, and a touch of grapefruit bitterness. It's not bad, just the hops are a bit vague.

Can to glass. Pours amber and only slightly hazed with an off-white head. Restrained citrus aroma. Flavor is citrus with malt sweetness. Slight alcohol present. Pretty good beer.
