Zero Gravity Craft Brewery began in May 2004 in Burlington, Vermont, inside a restaurant we called American Flatbread Burlington Heath. One of the distinguishing elements of our beers at Zero Gravity is adherence to the qualities of the classic beer styles that make those beers great.

Very hazy golden and straw coloured body with a faint clear bottom, all with a three centimetre tall soapy pure white head that leaves a nasty lace on the sides, all above an 80 per cent opaque body. Aroma of crisp lemons, dry malt, some wheat notes, a dash of granola and flowers, but seemingly everything in the nose is mild here. Light-bodied; Slightly crisp and supportive malts show here, but are still on the light side, but a grassy and lemony flavour hits up front and provides some bitterness here, with some soft sugars, seemingly from fruit, but the hops make sure this ends crisp - nicely. Aftertaste is dry, fairly straight-forward and definitely showing off some alpha acids, but there is also enough malt support to make this balanced throughout. Overall, a nice light-ish IPA that's a nice blend of older (it's still bitter) and newer (slightly fruity and unfiltered) IPA styles, but this works out well - nice to try all the way down here in D.C., my first I've seen from this brewery, here! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from The Sperryville Corner Store in Sperryville, Virginia on 09-July-2022 for US$3,79 with the tagline 'A 40 canned on 24-May-2022' and sampled at my house here in Washington on 15-July-2022.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up in the US. Pours lightly hazed pink-orange with a slim, creamy white head. Light to medium sweet flavour with pleasant zesty citrus character, some supportive pale bready malts. Light bodied with average carbonation. Nicely balanced finish, more refreshing citrus notes, a little oily peel, pale bread, slight zest. Enjoyable.

5 oz draft. Aroma is weak fruit with some grass. The grass dominates the flavor but it is not obnoxious l. Decent balance. This is easily the best Zero Gravity I had in a LONG while.

Can at home in NH. Pours clear yellow-gold with a foamy, white head. Lightly sweet, mellow cereal, light papery notes, hay, pale bread. Light bodied with average carbonation. Somewhat dry to finish, but more paper. So so.

Cask at Great British Beer Festival 2023, Olympia, London. A hazy golden/orange/yellow coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, orange, tropical fruit taste and aroma. Pleasant pale ale.
