$alt Lyf3 is a 5.8% IPA hopped intensely with Simcoe and Centennial with sea salt. Super expressive aromatics/flavor profile. Bright lemon peel, Grapefruit flesh, passionfruit, a touch of pine. The sea salt comes through on the finish and dries out slightly. We love this one for realzies. Perfect for ripping a 3' gnar gnar barrel with your bro-brahs.

Tap into a snifter showing unfiltered dull tangerine yellow with half a finger of quickly dissipating clean white foam. The nose shows a lot of juicy grapefruit on a bed of bready malts. The palate is medium bodied and fully but smoothly carbonated. Flavors of juicy grapefruit with a light adzuki sweetness on the finish. Very light saltiness in the middle akin to a sports drink. Dry with a moderate bitterness. Not the best I’ve had but not bad at all. Update - After a few sips, the saltiness becomes very apparent as it seems to permeate the mouth and is not very pleasant. My score from the first impression still stands though.
