Hobo Life Session IPA is heavily dry-hopped with Citra and rests on 20% flaked oats. Refreshing and bright with notes of lime and grapefruit zest to entertain the palate, Hobo Life is a go-to for any session.

I don't really like Session IPA as a style, but this is pretty good. Pleasant bright citrus, body fluffed out some by the oats. All around well executed and enjoyable.

Draft at 8 Degrees Plato. Pours a hazy straw gold with a full finger of white foam that lingers. Gummy worms, lime and tangerine zest on the nose. Some peach as it warms. Light, lowish carb. Tangerine pith, pine and pineapple linger. A bit thin, but the flavors and aromas were nice. Classic session IPA with a hazy twist. Very nice lacing.

Pours hazy golden with a thick white head. Aroma of light malt with some hops. Taste has grassy hops, bitter. Palate has intense lemon and grassy notes. Good.

Slightly copper and bronze coloured body with a nice two centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of crisp citrus, light grain, a touch of grapefruit and a small dose of wheat noticeable - quite strong throughout, with no apparent alcohol or body. Light-bodied; Super fresh grass and citrus fruits noticeable up front without much hop bitterness, but a lot of hop flavour, with a smooth and still pungent crisp and light astringency, but showing a touch of light sugars towards the end as well. Aftertaste shows a nice and subdued grassy hop flavour with some super mellow citrus and grapefruit hop flavours that lead to a bit of maltiness towards the end, but nothing in terms of real body or punch, in a good way. Overall, a pretty nice Light IPA with a bunch of good hoppy flavours that don't show bitterness, but do show the character in terms of grass and citrus fruits with little body. I sampled this twelve ounce can, labelled 'Citra Hobo Life' on Super Bowl Sunday, 03-February-2019 to root on the Patriots, purchased from Whole Foods in New York (Bryant Park), New York on 30-November-2018 for US$2,99 sampled at home in Washington on 03-February-2019.
