16oz can pours a clear orange with plenty of white head. Nose starts out very green, like hop pellets, grass, some yeast, some grist. Flavor has more grist, orange now, yeast, perfume, less green and grassy. Some corn now. A bit flabby on the end. 7 4 6 3 11

Ever so slightly hazy golden coloured body with a thinnish pure white head. Aroma of pure white grape juice with a deep tart and floral note along with some grass and a touch of pure fructose - this is definitely fruity, in perhaps a good way, without any hops in the nose. Light-bodied; Dry and floral flavour at first with a deep grassy and perfumey kick that shows a ton of white grape juice, some lighter herbs and a dose of tart grapefruit on the finish, but a relatively easy-drinking, simplistic beer that doesn't show any of the hops - just the fruit. Aftertaste shows some more dry flavours, a touch of malt and grain, but the white grape and foral notes dominate throughout - nice and crispy/dry, but this shows way more of a saison than an IPA. Overall, a good enough beer that has some identity issues, but shows good qualities in terms of grapes, but not with the hops - and this is a pretty sub-par 'Brut IPA', but interesting to try. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Crystal City Wine Shop on 24-January-2019 for US$4,29 sampled at my house here in Washington, just a few days later on 04-February-2019.

Crystal clear golden and light amber coloured body with a thinnish pure white head on top and a little bit of bubbles rising from the sides and bottom of the glass. Aroma of light metal, a touch of toffee, grain and earth with a light dose of touch of apples and pears as well. Light-bodied; Strong grassy and herbal flavour at first with a big nutty and toffee flavour, some lighter malts and a touch of sweetness from caramelised sugars and fruits, that ends in a tiny amount of bread and yeast as well. Aftertaste shows a very smooth and easy-drinking lager with some more of the biscuity and toffee notes than I'd usually expect to see for the style with a softer finish and a good deal of sweetness. Overall, a good and smooth, easy-drinking lager with a ton of biscuity and grainy flavours, only showing a touch of complexity and yeast. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Harris Teeter in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 04-December-2018 for US$1,83 sampled at my Mom's house in Manassas, Virginia on 23-December-2018.
