This is interesting. Juicy like that sort of IPA, except it's not really very bitter.
Draft
Somewhat sweet and tacky. A little brackish, a little grassy, but would have liked this to be more crisp.
Draft
I thought this was pretty clear. Or is a bit sweet but has the underlying flavor of a good Czech pils.
Draft
Thick and red, fairly bitter but then you notice a strong malt flavor.
Draft
This is actually really good, and I don't like IPAs. Of course, it's not super bitter, and trends towards what I think of "juicy IPA". I'm sure it's just mild and mass market, so a true IPA aficionado wouldn't like it.
Draft
Very fruity, like orange juice. But then there is this powerful bitterness underlying everything.
Bottle
Sparkly on the tongue. More spice than fruit/banana. There's actually a nice but of bitterness contrasting the hefe flavor. Nice
Bottle
Not bad. Fairly mild, a little brackish but with hints of sharp juice.
