Taster pour at Ono. Clear golden pour, skimpy head. Genetic aroma equal parts pale malts and hops. Taste leans more on the malts with a light hoppy bitterness.

Perfectly clear light amber and copper coloured body with almost no head at all, just a sliver of off-white on top. Aroma of grass, nuts, cardboardie malts with a dash of grain and toffee on the end, all with a light alcohol noticeable throughout. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grainy and nutty flavours which show earth, funk and some light caramelised sugars with a large bitterness that seems to originate from the malt, but there are a touch of hops noticeable here, although those seemingly are German or English in nature and don't contain much alpha acids. Aftertaste shows some grain and bitterness, with a nutty and earthy profile that is almost equivalent to a lager-like yeast bite that comes through at the tail end and is not so pleasant. Overall, a pretty substandard beer, and definitely more akin to an EPA or APA more than any sort of IPA equivalent, but even in the most ideal style of an EPA I still wouldn't recommend this one, sadly. I sampled this sixteen ounce pour on draught from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 30-August-2019 for US$5,00.
