Can at home in Canaan - picked up from then Cummington Co-Op. pours hazy orange-gold with a creamy, white head. Fun stuff, strong grapefruit character, some rindy bitterness, a little grass. Light bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with more bitter grapefruit character. Good stuff.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Andover Liquors. Appearance is cloudy light brown/dark yellow, no sparkle with few dark floaties, 3-finger width white fizzy head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is light grapefruit, hay. Taste is mild grapefruit, pepper, melon. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, soft-to-average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, mild all around. Surprised it's 5% ABV.

As with most of their beers, I've had a number of cans of it at various times, as it's so damned cheap and such a good value. Most recently a six pack of cans on 8/5/17.
Lightly-to-minimally hazy, bright, copper-tinted golden with a large, frothy, well-retained, white head atop.
The nose demonstrates the lush, minimally acidic, ruby red-like grapefruit juice but is well-integrated with both hop and beer character, as soft but ample base malts add honey, biscuit, light caramel to balance while the hop character itself contributes more citrus and light tropical notes. Melon and very light bubble gum from the yeast are noted in the background and neither resin nor alcohol shows forth.
Soft, well-carbonated, with a malty texture and a good deal of residual sweetness, though the bubble gummy yeast and juicy, fruity hops add to that perception, as it's still well-attenuated. No resin or alcohol and lots of grapefruit, of course. Spicy, floral and very juicy at points with no resin or alcohol. Excellent beer and packed with flavor for its size.

Pours hazy orange into a shaker. Bubbly white head with little retention recedes to nothing. Sour orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit aromas. Grapefruit peel, pith and pulp front to back.

12 oz can shared by Chalumeaux, much thanks. The brew is a bright hazy golden pour with a bubbly off white head, aroma has grain, bold grapefruit juice and mild biscuit. The grapefruit juice is the largest character, some light citrus, hints of bitterness. Body is pretty decent for a session IPA. Doesn’t become watery. Bitterness is balance by the grapefruit tartness. Nice.
