Ride On IPA embodies what we try to do every day - enhance the journey. The soft mouthfeel and notes of melon and pine deliver southern California vibes in a can. Simcoe, Citra and Cascade hops leave nothing to be desired but the ambition to be present and ride on.

Can from Brewers Haven. Light golden body with small foamy head. Aroma us hoppy and fruity, light citrus. Taste favors the sweetness, citrus fruity flavors followed by a mild hoppy bite. Another yawner.

Pours a semi clear light golden color with a non retentive head.
Smells of pineapples and hops in the background.
Taste is uniquely peachy up front. Not too juicy or bitter. Not complex at all. Finishes hoppy and smooth.

Hazy yellow, white head, ok retention and lacing
Citrus zest and juice, some pine and dank
Very muddled flavor, both hop and malt-wise. Raw grain over green, zest, and juice.
Medium bodied, but mouth coating, appropriate carbonation
No thanks.

A typical West Coast IPA, but cloudy, like an east coast. Bitterness is probably from the Cascade hops and the east coast comes from the others - along with the cloudiness. Bought this at our local Kroger, in a 6 pack, in Georgia.
Can looks different, but the descriptions are the same - a good West Coast IPA, but not a great one....

Most of the time my experience with IPAs now is - you’ve had one, you’ve had them all. But ever so often you come across one that is unique in is own way - this is what I find with this little Cali IPA.
Hazy yellow-orange with foamy head and lacing, the smell is all tangerines and grapefruit. Mouthfeel is light and crisp. The taste was full on citrus making this a very solid offering and another good representative of an already full field.

LOOK: Pours slightly less than clear and in a solid gold color, with an all white fluffy head that has good retention while also displaying an abundance of side glass lace.
AROMA; Citrus of apricot and peach are most prominent.
Taste: Nicely balanced IPA with bread malts and citrus hops.
Overall nice balance of citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink. A very enjoyable brew.
