India Pale Lager is a hybrid between a lager and a hoppy special. The mystical Griffin is a combination of an American eagle and a Czech lion. The Americans, who didn't invent but definitely pushed the IPA style, and the Czechs as a lager superpower. Put it all together and you have an India Pale Lager. A wonderful aroma full of fruit, hop bitterness and high drinkability of the lager.

Can from somewhere. Misty orange-amber body, off white head, fluffy, medium retention. A mongrel indeed, initially a big, nice berry/grape blast from the can, but that subsides soon, peachy notes show up, soft flowery notes, citric, other stone fruit, a bit dusty, light light touch of cloves. Literally a rotation of aromas, sometimes working, sometimes less so. The taste, however, is less interesting, extremely dry, lightly earthy, fairly carbonated. Light peachy hoppy notes, going herbal. I mean, not a bad taste, but this is hard to drink it's so dry, bitterish, astringent. Huh. Kinda enjoying it anyway, but barely.
