Howe Sound Brewing Super Jupiter Mango ISA – Session IPA at 4.5% ABV | 25 IBU (C$3.79 at Okotoks Co-Op, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 29-Aug-2020, reviewed 30-Aug-2020)
Appearance: hazy deep gold with three fat fingers of loose pale ivory head, good retention and spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: mild, mango and tropical fruits, bready malt, hint of pine. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
I dunno, maybe it’s just too long in the can (though I can’t know that, can I, without a date!) but it feels a bit faded and lacklustre. It’s not bad, I suppose, but on the other hand it’s not really much of anything at all. (13/20)
