Born Colorado Brewing Myopia – American IPA at 8% ABV | 68 IBU (C$4.27 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 28-Jan-2021, acquired 10-Feb-2021, reviewed 27-Feb-2021)
Appearance: clear straw with a short loose white head, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: coconut, citrus, pale malt, resiny pine. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, high bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
Hopped with Sabro and Magnum, and that’s exactly what I get, with surprisingly emphatic coconut over citrus and pine. (Which, to be honest, might not actually be to everybody’s liking.) The bitterness is definitely on the high side, but it’s still pretty drinkable, and not sharp or unbalanced. I’m not unhappy with it, on the whole. (14/20)
