Can from their IPA 15 pack. Great value for okay beer. Pint glass at home.

Medium gold, oily but good clarity, soapy & clingy, thin head.
Soapy, herbal, little bit of C & floral nose.
Frothy, watery mango, herbal hops, slightly tropical, yeasty & danky dregs.
Thin, frothy, very slight acid.

Very decent for 3.8%

Weekend afternoon date with my wife.

Bright, amber tea brew, quick-hitting head.
Lots of cherry skin on the nose with some warm undertone of spice.
Sour cherry, edible floral, savory greens, lemon lime Gatorade. Inviting tartness that isn't too much. Sloshable & less complex than in past years. Also haven't had it warm, like they serve it during the winter.

Thin, warming, welcoming, solidly good. Wife liked this too.

Near the end of this wifey & me outing. Remaining list is looking a little repeatable.

Half hazy, golden pour into one of their standard long pints, with some stiff foam & a sticky cascade.
Lots of banana aroma with some wet salt & sand.
Banana, lemon, blanched wheat & leafy greens, clove oil.
Soft carb, soft body.

Very mellow & lacking flavor.

Wife liked this one. Five points banked.

Raspberry iced tea pour, lingering bleached lace.
Nose is raspberry, lime leaf, heavy on the sweaty socks.
Blackberry sharpness, fresh Cabernet Franc or something else red & light. Big bubblegum & grassy endtrails. Fruity.
Thin, dry, airy, delicate, easy abv feels.

Well done.
