Satisfying hop character and just 95 calories … that can’t be possible. Oh, but it is! After years of R&D and tweaking the recipe to incorporate continual hopping, 30 Minute Light IPA is officially here!! This true indie craft beer has all the character of a world class IPA, but with only 95 calories, 3.6g carbs, 1g protein and 0g fat per 12oz serving. Seriously.
The little sibling of 60 Minute, 90 Minute and 120 Minute IPAs has officially been born. We continually hopped this brew for 30 minutes to get a less bitter, more aromatic & easier drinking Light IPA. It’s hoppy, crisp, and crushable!

12 oz can purchased at Total Wine in Overland Park, Kansas. JUL 2026 D 013 6 2251 11 stamped on the bottom of the can, which I believe means this was packaged on Jan 13, 2026. The pour is a hazed yellow golden with a two inch white foamy head that falls quickly with some splotchy lace. The aroma is cereal malt and some lemon peel soft bitter. Fresh, though pretty basic. The taste is a nice clean blend of the cracker malt flavor and the softly lemon peel citrus bitter floral hop. The palate is light bodied, soft natural carbonation and clean crisp softly bitter finish. Easy drinking beer.

12oz can. Crisp, but hollow. Easy drinking, but just no real redeemable qualities. Seltzer body. Faded stale hops. Not good.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clearish yellow gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Aromas of grain, lemon and orange zest. Palate is similar with a touch of scratchy carbonation and more more. Balanced and refreshing. Easy drinking with citrus, and lemon/lime notes. Not bad.

Sample at Eclipse Company Store as part of Ohio Brew Week on 07/18/2025. Slightly hazy dull golden pour with a thin off-white head that recedes quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of grassy hops, citrus and malt. Light-bodied and effervescent with a mild grassy hop character and notes of grapefruit and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short citrusy hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

Pours clear yellow with a dense, lasting white head. It smells lightly citrusy. The flavor is mild with grainy malt and citrusy hops. It’s light bodied and easy drinking with pretty good flavor for such a light brew.
