Ballast Point Passing Haze IPA Session India Pale Ale

Ballast Point Passing Haze IPA Session India Pale Ale.

4.2 % ABV, 30 IBU. Ballast Point Brewing, San Diego, CA. 

Lightly hazed, bright golden hue, slim white head. 

In the nose: Mild citrus notes, with a twist of the tropical, slight sweetness. 

In the mouth: Light on the palate, mild hoppiness, light-bodied, easy drinking. Session IPA, no doubt, with the extra element of the hazy style. Citrus flavors, with the touch of pineapple & guava, swim in the senses, alongside a modicum of hop bitterness. Plays it nice and cool until the very end. 

Not a bad beer, but far too meek and mellow for me. It's no great shock that I mainly bought it because it was a $9 6-pack. 

Passing Haze IPA is an off-the-charts exploration of the India Pale Ale. We’ve loaded the hop cannons and fired a late addition blast bursting this incredibly sessionable IPA with juicy, tropical citrus hops. The result is an easy drinking treasure trove of hop gold.
