Laser Cat's gentler sibling arrives at 6.0%, while still packing plenty of Citra, Mosaic and Galaxy hops for a citrusy, fruity punch. intense tropical fruit aromas and flavors of peach, passion fruit, mango and citrus with a slight malt finish.

Pours a hazy dark amber from a can, over carbonated. Lemon aroma, hay. Not as thin as most sessions, which is good, but still way too carbonated, and odd grassy notes don't really jive with the statement that it was hopped with citra and mosaic. Okay beer.

Draught at Row 34, 8/17/18.
Blonde-to-brass golden, lightly-to-minimally hazy with a small, fairly well-retained, white head atop.
Light vegetal, wood, pine, lemon and grapefruit pick up light bread, cracker and a touch of sourdough, be it from the hop or malt, I'm not sure. Lightly fruity yeast with a pinch of twangy resin on the end and perhaps a touch of soap and pepper. Not very aromatic at all, even with warming.
In the mouth it's bready, rather malt-forward with a somewhat "thick" texture, albeit quite soft. Pepper, vegetal and wood notes transition to lemon and grapefruit with a good deal of fruitiness, but no juice or particularly bright flavors. A lot of dull, bitter, heavy hop notes tending lightly resinous and even sour on the end. Like Laser Cat, the malt and hop bills don't seem to work well.
