Ever so slightly hazy golden coloured body with a thickish, three to four centimetre tall, just off-white head that stays afloat for a while and leaves a small lace on the sides after all is said and gone. Aroma of fake sugar, light malts, wheat and grass with a dash of hop pellets and some grapefruit notes, but fairly straight-forward. Light-bodied; Fairly strong grassy, biscuity malts show at first with a subtle, but noticeable hop element and a dash of bitterness, but some smooth sweet notes from fake sugar and a kick of grapefruit and lemons show at the very end. Aftertaste shows some nice balance with a bunch of hops (mainly from pellets it seems like) with a good balance of biscuity malts, all set forward with a nice tiny bit of sweetness and a dry herbal bite at the very end. Overall, a nice enough Light IPA with some nice flavours, a good level of sweetness, but a proper balance of malt and hops makes this nice and enjoyable throughout. I sampled this 440 mL can, purchased from Costco in Manassas, Virginia in May 2021 by my Mom, sampled in my hotel room here in Columbia, Maryland on 20-July-2021.

Can, from Costco. Pours clear golden with small foamy off-white head, light piney aroma, high carbonation, medium bitter lightly piney taste, very faint citrus peel, thin body, long medium bitter finish. Not bad, but not terribly special either.

Lemon and some pineapple. Easy drinking and well balanced. Nice little beer, good for on otherwise lame St. Paddy's day in covid. Light bitter finish. Drank in park. Can from Costco four pack.
