You just can’t look away.
CHUGGALUGGA CHUGGALUGGA CHOO CHOOOOO! There’s a hop train coming with some lemony limey cargo - Comet & HBC 735 - towards a crowded interchange. There’s excess containers of Citra and Mosaic (you’ve heard about the international hop surplus, yes?) that are criss crossing aging tracks at a snail's pace (which is NOT Pete Buttigieg’s fault - he’s an American treasure that will save Democracy one day) and it’s looking like a collision is inevitable. BANNNNHHHHHHH! DING ding DING ding DING ding BANHHHHHHH! [?LOUD EXPLOSIVE NOISES TOO LONG TO PHONETICIZE?]…There are hops EVERYWHERE and it’s a FUCKING MESS but also it’s FUCKING DELICIOUS and that’s how you make beer outta hops that smell like lemonade.

16 oz can poured, picked up at Special Brews. Gentle haze, more of a golden glow, with a patchy foam head. Lots of citrus hop aroma with a little lemon, a little lime, and a little of everything with that citrus description. Cool and flavorful IPA with mow to moderate bitterness. Soft melon note, and a barely gritty grain peeks in. It's slick and easy drinking. It's borderline imperial, but I'd never guess it. The only real bitterness this carries is a late palate remainder. Overall, another solid one here.
