Pours a hazy orange-ish to yellow color with an off white head. In the aroma, gingerbread like malt and some faint hops. In the taste, gingerbread malt and licorice, no hops! A small bite and medium to lighter bodied mouthfeel, with a dry gingerbread malt in the aftertaste. Quite English, but licorice in an IPA, icky!

Ok, I don't even usually full review, but I drank this then looked it up and 72 overall is absolutely not true IMO. It says farmhouse IPA right on the damn can. All the reviews complain about not being hoppy enough, but it plainly says "all malt" right there. It tastes like a decent farmhouse ale with some east coast hops. I don't love it, maybe would buy again if super fresh, but it's an 82, not 72. Cheers and drink responsibly!

a - Yellow orange color with 1" head

s - Strong malt smell

t - Very light on the hops, would not classify as an IPA. A bland taste to it.

m - Very watered down, and bland.

o - Not an IPA, too watered down, and does not have any taste to it.

Was sampled at a tasting, and would not purchase in the future.

Poured from a 12 oz can in to my Notorious BIG pint glass.

A- Pours a murky orange with a single finger of off-white head that leaves behind some decent lacing.

S- Faint hops and a little citrus. Not powerful at all.

T- Pretty watery for an IPA. Standard notes for the style, and not a whole lot more going on here.

M- The mouthfeel actually isn't too bad, there's just not enough flavor backing it up. Adequate carbonation and slightly creamy.

O- I'd drink it over BMC, but it's nothing great. Pretty neat can though. The Butternuts sampler 12 pack isn't terrible if you're looking for something to drink all night with some variety.
