Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7

Fairly crisp and clear golden and copper coloured body with a nice two centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat nicely and lasts for a long time. Aroma of crisp grassy and very herbal, perfumey, bitter notes with a lot of fresh hops and bitterness noticeable, all from the hops with a minimal crystal malt backbone in the nose that seems simple. Medium-bodied; Relatively crisp, grassy and herbal notes show at first with a lot of fresh hop bitterness that has a lot of alpha acid pungency with some light sweetness from citrus fruits and stone fruits and a touch of complexity on the end with a dry finish. Aftertaste shows a lot of robust complexity from the hops with a relatively balanced but light malt backbone that hits nice throughout. Overall, a nice and enjoyable beer that is quite dry, bitter and floral with a good stone fruit flavour that has a little bit of pungency, but a good, balanced IPA option, that somehow doesn't taste like other Idaho 7s i've had, but is nice for sure. I sampled this sixteen ounce pint-sized can purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton,  New Jersey on 26-November-2022, sampled on the train to New York with my wife and kids on 01-December-2022.
