Junkyard Christian Bale Ale

Junkyard Christian Bale Ale. Is it a pale ale? Or a season IP---It's hoppy! Brewed with Citra, Belma, and El Dorado hops.
4.8 % ABV. 40 IBU.
Junkyard Brewing, Moorhead, MN.

Why is called Christian Bale Ale, if the illustration features Robin? There's no Robin in the Nolan Bat-universe. And don't bring up Joseph Gordon Leavitt.

Throughly hazed, luminescent orange juice hue, slim whitish head.

In the nose: big citrus, full-on fruit, totally haze, bro.

In the mouth: Fruity and smooth. Slips down the throat easily-peasily, with splashes of citrus, moderate bitterness, and all that hazy yeast. Bitterness, at first mild, grows on the palate. Lasts long, crosses over into astringency territory, almost. I'm liking this, more and more.

Crazy, hazy citrus, with touches of tropical, too. Tasty stuff, and I'm digging it.
