Pull up to the party with a beer that hides nothing up its sleeves. A massive amount of Strata, El Dorado, and Citra hops have been invited to this brew party to showcase notes of grapefruit, strawberry, and passionfruit. Flex on friends and family by dipping into a pack of party tricks! Keg stands optional. Cheers!

Pine, lime peel, orange, and biscuit malt aroma. Golden yellow with large white head and mild effervescense. Moderately sweet over-ripe orange, lemon, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter dry lemon/lime peel flavor. Okay body.

Draft at the Handlebar. Medium golden pour, cloudy, thin skin ofy notes. white head. I ordered this because it a similar hop profile to the pFriem Citra Strata, and wanted to compare. Light aroma, malty, faint citrus. Taste leans heavily on the malts, light hoppy accents of citrus and zesty bitterness. Decent, but an edge to the pFriem for some musty, earth

OK, so another one of a gahzillion IPA out there, its getting to be 1 times ten to the google ipa available in terms of engineering notation for availability. Yes, so many terribly on style IPA out there and they all practically taste the same, you know, bitter ass preservative hops, WTF? Without a swish from the bottom of the pounder can, this stuff pretty much pours simply clear pale ale. Has a thin quarter inch white head, starts to fade to pond scum but never really quite gitz thar. Taste is not as bitter as most of the bitter ass IPA I've tasted but it is still terribly and nastily on style. What else can be said, it says that it hides nothing ups its sleeve and it don't; just one of another big nasty mouth coating IPA. There, you have it; simply the humble opinion of a cheap pale light beer lager lover. LoL
