Not terrible. I was calling this one the poor man’s 60 minute. nothing special about this, although it was a smooth drinker. could tell the hops were a little dif than most ipas.. lots of floral/citrus tones.... would opt out again if other ipas were available.

Sweet, hoppy and very clean, this is an everyday ipa for me. Memorable because of a little mishap in the alcohol volume here, this was sold in the normal shops and they aren’t supposed to sell over 4,7% stuff. No wonder this was more delicious than the run of the mill ordinary shop IPAs.
