An American IPA with a bitter edge that will push your citrus tolerance to the brink and back; Elvis Juice is loaded with tart pithy grapefruit peel. This IPA has a caramel malt base, supporting a full frontal citrus overload - grapefruit peel piled on top of intense U.S. aroma hops. Waves of crashing pine, orange and grapefruit round out this citrus infused IPA.

From an Advent calendar.
Old canning, June 30th. I will never buy from them again.
It pours a clear copper with plenty of foam, though fairly short lived.
I could smell the grapefruit as I raised my glass to my nose. Big caramel malt also greeted my nose. The smell was somewhat promising.
The taste is a different matter. I get a lot of grapefruit twang immediately but it is followed by earthy then caramel malt that just didn't taste right. A little bit spicy, some piney notes. Nope.
Very good mouthfeel.
I'd love to have tried this fresh. Oh well.

Im Glas macht dieses Bierchen einen ganz guten Eindruck. Hellbernsteinfarben mit einer zart glänzenden Trübung und zarter Perlage. Die weiße, fein- bis mittelporige Schaumkrone ist flaumig und gut haltbar. Die Duftaromen geben sich eher zurückhaltend, jedoch ganz angenehm süßlich, saftig/limoartig und erinnert an Orange und Grapefruit (na hoffentlich...). Den Start macht ein sanfter Antrunk, der zwar etwas dünn wirkt, aber doch schön süßlich, limoartig und zartherb ankommt. Der Mittelteil gestaltet sich süßherb und fruchtig mit Noten von Orange und Grapefruit. Mundgefühl und Süffigkeit sind dabei ganz okay. Erst im Nachtrunk vernimmt man ein wenig Malz, da sich die Fruchtnoten nun etwas im Hintergrund bewegen. Eine leicht trockene Herbe legt sich dazu. Mein Fazit: Für meinen Geschmack zu "saftig", zu limoartig und zu wenig bierig/malzig/würzig. Dennoch ein ganz gutes Bier.

0.33l can. Clear amber body with a moderate beige head. Aroma and taste of bready, grainy malts and grapefruit. Medium body with soft carbonation. A bit one dimensional, but drinkable.

12 ounce can from Canal Winchester, 8/10/21. Pretty good. Almost drank it before I rated it. Hazy amber large frothy tan head, good retention. Aroma of grapefruit, pale malt. Taste is grapefruit, pale malt hint of caramel. Some lemon and lime in there too. Crisp, mild bitterness, easy drinking. Simple. Quite nice.
