A Dry IPA intended to be a counterpoint to many of the sweet Hazy IPAs on the market, Out to Lunch smells of passionfruit and coconut. As it hits your tongue you taste cantaloupe, guava, and pineapple, with supporting notes of white grape, orange peel, lemon zest, and just a hint of kiwi and sweet cherry. It pours a vibrant gold with a slight haze, but finishes dry with a mild, refreshing bitterness. It is a beer designed to make you want another, and another, and… it’s 6.9%? Maybe you won’t go back to work after all.

473mL can, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out earthy hops, some resins, grapefruit rind, and dry bready malt. Flavour reveals earthy hops, lots of bready malt, a little bitter grapefruit, and some resins. Not sticky or sweet at all, just earthy and moderately bitter with a big dry bready malt backbone. It's not the most interesting IPA, but it's competently brewed and quite drinkable. Solid.

Cloudy light amber colour, dull. Nice malt profile, bready, light biscuits; moderate to strong bitterness, the hop character is herbaceous and slightly piney; it has a good body structure, and I wouldn't call it Dry. West Coast IPA, not very bright, but also not sticky; good.
