Basement Light by Scofflaw Brewing Co. was judged according to the 2021 BJCP Style Guidelines under category 21A, American IPA.

A potpourri of fruity aromas are immediately evidenced upon first inhale with an herbal hop note close on its heels.

Pale yellow, non-transparent with an aggressive white head that persisted throughout the review.

The flavor was also dominated by a distinct tropical fruitiness. However, unlike the aroma, there was more of a pronounced citrus character that lingered into a dry finish.

The body was thin, non-astringent with adequate conditioning, obviously designed for beer lovers that desire the flavors provided by IPAs without the higher aggressive alcohol levels often associated with the style.
