Im Independent Ale House Rapid City. Optisch trüb, kaum Schaum. In der Nase sehr fruchtig hopfig, im Trunk ebenso. Da ich noch fahren muss für heute sicher die beste Wahl.

Can mistakenly purchased by my father: not hazy with a thin white head. Aroma is passable... citrusy sort of piny. Uncooked wort. Taste is bitterish at the end. Kind of thin. Relatively drinkable.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy murky color ale with a medium size off-white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops notes with light grainy notes. Taste is also a mix of citrusy hops notes with some grainy notes and light bitterness. Body is pretty full for style with good carbonation. Grainy off taste kinda ruined this one for me.

Pours a murky yellow colour and a small white-ish head with little retention. Aroma's: dank and piney hops, a bit tangerine. Retronasal it's dank, light fruity, light bitter. Flavour is fairly bitter and grainish. A bit thin on the palate. Finish is grainish and above moderate bitter. Not too bad.

12oz can. Hazy orange golden pour, lasting white foamy head. Light malty, bready aroma, citrus. Taste is malty with a faint hit of orange peel. Abrupt finish.

Ever so slightly hazy golden and straw coloured body, with a large, three centimetre tall soapy off-white head that breaks down quickly, above the 70 per cent opaque body. Aroma of light citrus, soap, grass, hay and flowers, with a dash of yeast and bread noticeable, too. Light-bodied; Slight hoppy bitterness noticeable up front wiht a nice dryness and even piney flavour, without much malt at all, and almost a rice-like finish which just amplifies the hops and the associated bitterness, too, with the drying notes very strong at the end. Aftertaste is enjoyable with some good bitterness coming from the alpha acids of the hops, no sweetness at all, and no real yeastie or bready finishes, with a faint dose of grapefruit and lemon zest, but nice throughout and actually bitter - nice! Overall, a good example of a Non-Alcoholic IPA that, I feel is more PNW (or pure West Coastie at least) than New England, but with the 'haze' it's easy to over-simplify, but this is worthy of a drink if you don't want any alcohol, but do want a bitter IPA! Thanks Dad for getting me this one - a nice drink, for sure! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased by my Dad at Total Wine in Alexandria (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 02-April-2022 for US$10,99/six pack, packaged on 09-February-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 06-April-2022 - Thanks Dad! 8,4,7,3,15

Can from Trader Joe's. Pours a hazy straw gold with a full two fingers of foam that lingers. Great lacing down the glass. Light pineapple and grapefruit aromas on the nose. More of the same on the palate. Light, but nice carbonation. Drying finish but a little muted. I think I prefer the regular IPA better.
