OK, got this $2 can of IPA from total wine in cary NC. I don't like IPA but this can was pretty cheap so I thought I'd get a tick and a buzz: you know, kill 2 birds with one stone. Not really hazy, just plain old pale clear yellow. Nose is a little off sweet. It does have a seemingly creamy thin head. First taste impression is that its the same as any other contemporary IPA. It does however have a little bit of an undesired augmented astringent aspect to it. Next sip is the same, extremely common IPA bitter forward with some uncivilized rude astringent straight up ass. Towards the finish, the 7% abv is starting to perform its euphoric effects. When I swish the dregs in the bottom of the can, it does become just a little hazy, but not enough to say its truly a NEIPA, just saying. Well, at least I kot the buzz if not the enjoyment. Just another one in a brazillion common contemporary IPA out there. There, you have it.

Decent, with a nice pop of peach, berry, and lime zest, followed by a moderate pine bitterness. Texture isn’t as soft and pillowy as you want, and the fruit-juice sweetness doesn’t play well with the bitter streak, but still a drinkable pint.

From a 12 oz can. Pours a hazy orange straw with a big off white head. Aromas of dank hay. Flavors are bitter citrus with some sweet pale malts.
