16 oz can poured picked up at Special Brews. Moderate haze, bright golden pour. Patchy head that lasts. Nice balance of hops and grain here. Juicy, peachy like hops, with some barely gritty malts. A bit of a grassy side. Refreshing pale, with a long lingering palate. Melon and cool stone fruit finish. Nice summer time pale in the middle of winter. Bring this one back during baseball season!

Draft pour enjoyed at Chuck's, CD. About as bright, dense, and juicy of a haze I've ever seen from my favorite guys around here. Aroma has a peachy side to it, juicy stone fruit, but little sweet indicators that I usually get within the style. Medium bodied hazy, with some creamy tropical tones. Some slightly hot hops late. Cool refreshing finish. A standout hazy for sure, but I wouldn't say a standout Cloudburst IPA. Shouldn't have set that bar so high dudes.

16 oz can poured picked up at Special Brews. Moderately cloudy golden orange appearance, rocky cream foam. Can easily see why this beer is named this way. Hop profile has a juicy berry, almost grape taste to it. Juicy, but Qual parts bitter for balance. Fresh cool constant. Juicy like an east coast, bitter like a west coast. Fun hop bill to say the least. Excellent brew all around.

Poured from 473mL can. Clear bright blonde gold with minimal white head. Nice and crisp, hops have a nice melon-y bitterness. Enjoyable.

16oz @ Matt's new place during Andrew's visit. Appearance: clear blonde with a white head. Aroma: lots of NZ hops, dank, grassy, maybe a bit skunky, malty backbone. Taste: along the same lines. Overall: good lager for style lovers.

16 oz can poured at Matt's powerful tasting. Clean, bright, shiny golden pour, with a quick fading head. Nice hop quality to this crisp pils. Spicy note, but clouded by some mild tropical fruit hops. Crisp constant, cool finish. Really simple drinking pilsner, with generous hops. Really fun brew, and not surprised that the IPA masters can make a solid hoppy lager.

Golden, no head. Fairly spicy aroma. Lots of bitterness, clean pale malt, very nice balance.

16 oz. can, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out a nice tangy NZ hop character, with crisp biscuity malt, and some straw. Flavour is bright and clean, with lots of NZ tangy hops, white wine, straw, and crisp crackery malt. Tangy, crisp and bright. Excellent.

My last rate from another awesome trade with andrewje41. This can is November 2021. I never had fresh but I think the age has been good for this brew. I’m not fan of overly sweet so this tones that down. You still get rich cholesterol and earth and soy sauce. Soft creamy palate and lively. Very dark can and liquid. Quite nice.

Thanks Andrew. 20th red ipa tick woohoo! I do enjoy this style. Clear reddish copper with soapy head. Nose is caramel and pine. Tastes of caramel, cherry, strawberry, pine, cream soda. Soft palate. Light bitterness. Really hitting the spot
