Beer Of The Day: Son Of Juice - A chip off the old Hop block?

BOTD: Son Of Juice
Maplewood Brewing and Distilling (Chicago, IL)
(http://www.maplewoodbrew.com/home/)

IPA; 6.3% ABV

"...A hazy IPA dripping with fruit juice notes. Pilsner malt and oats make a perfect canvas for loads of mosaic, simcoe and nugget hops"

Poured from a can into a tulip pint glass.  Pours a cloudy light yellow with a firm white head.  A pleasant light citrusy nose is followed by a nice mild (modest IBU) IPA flavor, not high in bitterness. The mouthfeel is light and refreshing and finishes on the sweet side. A solid entry in the cloudy / New England IPA derby, this is refreshing and grapefruity. I hope I can still find it when the weather warms up and it really shines. Available in cans in Chicago area retailers.

Apparently this is derived from Maplewoods "Juice Pants" IPA, which reportedly changes its hop bill with each brewing. More research required ....

My rating: 4.0 / 5

Untappd: 4.05 / 5

Prost!
