Hazy gold with a medium sized white head. Bitter with strong body odor and onion. Regrettably long finish. Medium body. Disgusting. A total drain pour.

330mL can, pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma has some dankness, earthiness, and some mustiness. Flavour is rather harsh, with bitter earthiness, citrus, and rough earthy graininess. Not great, but pleasant enough for a NA hazy.

355mL can. Pours a murky dull blonde with a white head. Lots of dead citrus on the nose. Flavour has lots of dry citrus peels, dead malts. Very harsh and unrefined. This definitely tastes like a non-alc.

Pours hazy yellow and has a light citrusy aroma. The flavor is citrusy and malty with a malt profile that resembles many session IPAs. Not bad. The Sierra Nevada NA hazy is better, as is Athletic’s regular NA IPA.

Can - this is probably one of the more satisfying N/A IPA's I've tried, and is authentic enough to make me forget I am drinking an N/A beer - pretty decent heft to the body - hop profile is pleasant, herbal, and citric - the malt profile is more robust than you'll typically find in an N/A and is not at all watery on the tail end, which can also often happen - this is now my go-to N/A IPA.

Hazy pale yellow colour, large, quickly collapsing head; aroma of rottten watery pineapple and orange, some vegetables and grapefruity notes; taste is even worse with the same notes as can be felt in the aroma; it was a mistake to buy...and also to brew...

Can, hazy orange beer, small head. Aroma is sweet, wort, hops, fruit. Taste is the same, sweet, malt, wort, hops. Ok

Straight out of the can during sightseeing. It does a pretty good job in covering the unpleasant worty sweetness that’s so usual for NA beers and in doing so it doesn’t go over the top with the bitterness so it doesn’t turn into that medicine-like clusterfuck many of these NA IPAs do.

Light hazy gold with a two-finger head. Aroma is citrus fruit. Taste is also citrus fruit.

Like most of these new-wave N/A IPAs, tastes enough like a session IPA to fool the palate, but suffers from the same issues as any session beer. Eh.
