Muskoka Brewery Born This Way Nano IPA – Session IPA at 3.8% ABV | 25 IBU (C$3.91 at Collective, 473 ml, best before 30-Aug-2020, acquired 22-May-2020, reviewed 25-May-2020)
Appearance: hazy straw with two fat fingers of rocky white head, excellent retention and spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: bright tropical & stone fruit, pale crackery malt, citrus, grass. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate-lively carbonation, off-dry medium bitter finish. (4/5)
Pretty impressive flavour profile (and, actually, body) for such a small beer. It’s light, certainly, but actually doesn’t come across as a watered-down IPA. Hopped with Azacca, Mosaic, and Galaxy hops, and the flavour profile pretty much matches what you’d expect there. No qualifiers required here: it’s pleasant and refreshing, and I’d be more than happy to crush a whole lot of these on a sunny patio. (15/20)
