Pint can from Total Wine Greenfield, 11/23/21. Hazy orange large pillowy white head, good retention. Aroma of leafy hops, a bit of pine. Taste is lemon juice, pine. Thin, juicy, mild bitterness. A little weird.

Interesting name, got this from that beer place in robinson mall. It claims to be a hoppy beer at less than 4% Lets see. Smells like a mild IPA and pours like one too with a big white rocky head but it doesn't seem to be viscous. Yes, comes across like a light hoppy APA that's trying to be an IPA. Since it is rather light in hoppy attitude, it is rather refreshing but I think if I'm going to deal with hop bitterness, I want a little alky kick to it. Get me a little buzz. What ever. BTW, what are the ground breaking ingredients? Just asking.

12oz can. Surprisingly a pretty solid NE Session IPA type creature. The hops are sort of muted and boring, but the body is pleasant, and at 3.8%, truly sessionable. The buckwheat and chia give the body a little depth. Aroma is a tad undesirable. Unique enough offering, worth a try.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours somewhat hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of citrus and pale stone fruit. Med body, nearly. Flavor is dry and bitter - citrus, light malt and arguably some salt. Decent session ale.

Part of their Summer Vacation 12-pack bought in Vermont. Pours a hazy light-golden colour with a soapy white head, average lasting and with some foamy light lace. Aromas are a nice mix of citrus peel, juices and other tropical fruits. The taste is milder as the alcohol content is less, but still good. Fruity, citrusy, not too hoppy but with a nice light dry touch in the end. Quite good for a session APA.
