This beer was judged as #21C ( Hazy IPA ) according to the 2021 BJCP Guidelines. The aroma of this beer was pleasant and to be expected. It had a nice citrusy notes, notably grapefruit, along with a nice malt sweetness aroma.

The pour of this beer revealed a very hazy yellow hue… you couldn’t see through the glass! The carbonation was very nice with a fluffy head that did not recede over time. The first taste revealed a nice malt sweetness and very nice noticeable hop notes and flavors of tropical and citrus fruits. Again, grapefruit really sticks out here.

It is listed as “tropical and juicy” and it lives up to that moniker. The beer was so “juicy”, one could be mistaken that real, fresh grapefruit juice was added to the beer! Wonderful. The mouthfeel and body of this beer was medium and the carbonation was perfect. The overall impression of this beer is that it does live up to “tropical and juicy” as advertised. Hop bittering and profile was perfect. Great blend of malt sweetness and the tropical and juicy hop tastes of this beer. The beer was smooth, crisp and dry in the aftertaste. An easily quenchable Hazy IPA for any holiday or occasion.
