REVIEW:

Appearance (5%): Poured hazy light orange-peach into a pint glass. Unfiltered; sediment suspended in the beer. White head; good lacing at the top of the glass. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Pleasing tropical citrus and stone fruit with complementing oaty malt. Tropical is undoubtedly the star. 4.75/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose; tropical citrus and stone fruit from start to finish. Extremely refreshing and juicy. Oaty malt complements as always. Like drinking carbonated juice. 4.75/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, some carbonation. Extremely juicy with virtually no dry tongue. 4.75/5

Overall (20%): A world-class IPA. Incredibly juicy and full of tropical goodness. It's among the juicier and more tropical-packed IPAs that I've had, given the stated ABV (under 7%). Price would be the only deterrent here. 4.75/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.738/5
