Tin Whiskers Nebula Hazy Citrus IPA

Tin Whiskers Spark Series Nebula Hazy Citrus IPA. 5.9 % ABV.  33 IBU. Tin Whiskers Brewing Company, St. Paul, Minnesota.

Thoroughly hazed, dull golden, amble ivory head, leaving lace.

In the nose: Bright, vibrant citrus and pine notes aplenty.

In the mouth: More of that, nicely playing on the palate. Smooth, creamy, pillowy mouthfeel. Very much juicy. Quite pleasant. Practically no bitterness, which is what people are going for these days, it seems. If you ask me, (and if you're reading this, then you did) losing the bitter bite makes an IPA not an IPA. Call it something else if you must. It seems so many people have been incorrectly drinking IPAs for so long.

If that's the kind if "IPA" you want, this is the one for you.

A hazy, citrusy IPA, bursting with notes of tangerine and orange peel, brewed with Mandarina Bavaria, Citra, and Ekuanot hops.
We're pretty sure this beer's going to make a pretty Big Bang.
This aggressively hopped IPA, the latest in our limited-run Spark Series, starts with notes of tangerine and citrus zest before finishing with a clean, bright bitterness. In space, no one can hear you order another round. Good thing we brought this beer back to Earth.
