Moderately hazy orange and copper coloured body with a very thin, light brown and off-white head, only one centimetre tall, above the 60 per cent opaque orange coloured body. Aroma of grass, flowers, resin, hay, a slight amount of oranges and sweetness and a ton of piney notes in the nose, at least. Medium-bodied; Fairly crisp and robust deep grassy and piney hops dominate at first with a lot of alpha acid bitterness here and a slight sweetness closer to the end, but there isn't many malts here, and no depth, the dryness up front and all the bitterness from the hops clearly makes this show as an older school, West Coast IPA - nice! Aftertaste is dry still, super hoppy and fairly one-dimensional, aside from a little dose of stone fruits and orange qualities with a tiny bit of sugars, but these seem to add to the bitterness even more! Overall, a nice, very crisp and dry older school IPA that tastes much closer to a West Coast IPA, with a focus more on bitterness than any malts/sugars than anything near Imperial Status! Great to try, fresh from my recent trip to Georgia/South Carolina, but not my favourite overall. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Broughton Street Liqour in Savannah, Georgia on 30-December-2021 for US$4,99 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 16-February-2022.
Gold pour. Thin foam. Nose of hops and even lace. Citrus flavor with pith palate easy carbonation. A refreshing beer on a hot day
