What Our Editors Thought
“Velvety nose with a matte sheen—white grape, cinnamon. The sip meanders without enough structuring bitterness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Floral aromas—rose and lily—followed by lemongrass, orange, and a hint of green onion; surprising spice, with clove, black pepper. More citrus and herbal in the taste. Medium-light body. Very dry, clean finish lets the bitterness shine. Refreshing.”
What the Brewers Say
“Made from a base of Riverbend pilsner and malted corn, this cold IPA was fermented in our Acacia foudre with our house lager yeast.”
