Lightly hazy, straw-gold with an immediately-fizzling, white head.
Smells sweaty...with pineapple and heavy grassiness and light "sweetness" suggested by the honey-rich malts. Spice and pepper continue the dry, peppery, very dry herbal quality. Doesn’t really come together as there’s just a bit too much off-character from old and/or overboiled hops.
Citrus, sweat and plastic, with dirty, stale, old hop notes lingering lightly through the middle. Soft, watery, almost chalky texture that exhibits loose carbonation and a thin, watery, undermalted feel to it. Have no qualms that it’s meant to be a low abv, sessionable IPA, but it’s just a poorly-brewed mess with lots of off notes from the hops which seem quite old.
