On the theme of "brewers can call a beer anything that they want to", here we have an IPA that weighs in at 30 IBU's...I'll get into the taste here in a moment, but I would expect anything called an IPA to have at least 40 IBU's, and that's on the low end. Call it a pale ale and be done with it...but that's marketing for you. And "sessionable" IPA's are this year's fad.
Now that my bitching is done, on to the beer itself. It pours a pale golden color with a two-finger snow-white head. There's some fruitiness evident, in particular pineapple and pear and a very light grapefruity hop profile. Other flavors making an appearance are lemon and orange peel, and maybe a little coriander. Overall, it's not bad, decent enough summer ale, but nothing to write home about.
