Hmm.. well it's another cheerful label if nothing else.
Pleasingly however that's not where it ends - in fact, there is very good beer lurking behind that antelope, or ibix, or whatever. The Simcoe hops and whatever else they're doing here lends it an aroma and taste profile more in line with malty DIPA brews than the typically more bitter hopped American IPA crowd, but at 6.2% it's simultaneously quite light to drink.
It's good looking, laces well, holds its bubbles inert. Nice aeration makes it incredibly easy yet tasty balanced drinking. My only real down notes were a slightly watery finish, but that in itself is a product of the approach they've taken.
I'd buy this again no worries. Recommended as a gentle yet tasty, different take on American IPA. 7.5
