What Our Editors Thought

“Soft tropical notes with a bit of pungent weed, herbal spice. Clean, bright; sweetness amplifies fruit notes, deftly balanced by bitterness. Crescendos to a sudden finish.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Aroma offers mild green pepper, delicate tropical notes—pineapple, guava, passion fruit, orange, lemon. Flavor feels a bit muddled—tropical at first, hint of malt sweetness, but body feels thin, watery. Balanced sweetness dries out to a clean, subtle bitterness. Underlying spicy note. Crisp finish.”

What the Brewers Say

“Our first foray into the style of cold IPA.”
