Always excited for this one. Its good but it might not be the best in the history of this line up. Golden to amber color, medium head. Bready, light spicy hop note. Medium bitterness. Extremely drinkable. I've never been to the actual oktoberfest but I've read how marzens are not served there, but rather a lighter golden beer. This makes me wonder how close it is to the actual beers served at ofest in Munich. Not that it matters to the review, I just got curious. Cans from a Publix in Sanford, FL

12 oz cans from Publix Oviedo FL. Looks like a trad IPA in the glass, light chill haze, golden to copper, medium head. Nose hints at resin, sweat sock, onions. Flavor similar but also some grapefruit rind and something semi-dank. Semi-sweet lightly caramelized malt profile, biscuity maybe. Medium bitter finish. Nice to see a trad IPA on the market, but in that tradition, this sits squarely in the middle of the road.

Pretty good, nice citrusy notes and pine resin bitterness at the finish. Dry crackery malts. I like it.

A lot of tropical fruit here, big pineapple, a little sweat sock (cuz I always smell that in the tropical hops). Juicy and hazy. Some actual resinous bitterness here is a bit of a surprise.

Very interesting - does it sit somewhere between hazy and west coast? It has a slight haze in the glass. Nose is big on fresh hops, a lot of tropical fruit going on there, flavor too. Semi-sweet malts, biscuity. Medium bitterness. Lingering citrus rind in the aftertaste with some mineral notes in the bitterness. The soft carbonation, hazy appearance, and gentle nature of this beer make me think hazy/NE, but the wack of bitterness makes me think west coast. Doesn't really matter, its quite good.

I'm kinda meh on this. Pours a cloudy orangey-amber color with a decent head. Nose is somewhat dusty/grainy, a little hint of honey is nice, light citrus. The flavor is more dominated by the orange peel, which has an artificial character to it, and afterward its too bitter, it doesn't really feel balanced. I can only barely taste any honey. On the whole it's a recipe that just doesn't find harmony between its ingredients and doesn't make you want to drink more. I could see this possibly working if you were sitting at a beach bar and got one of these, and you were too busy girl watching and enjoying the beach to pay attention to your disappointing beer.

Neat, this is barely different from regular Guinness and easily the best NA beer I've ever had. Looks like draught Guinness with the black color and tan creamy head. Taste feels like it leans a little more chocolate than regular Guinness, probably something in the malt profile that comes through a little differently. Somewhat milder, lighter in palate, but here's where the nitro actually helps (and I hate the basic nitro concept for beer) to keep the creamy palate so its not watery.
