Review – Altadena Beverage Hazy IPA

The new private label beer at the lovely little Altadena Beverage shop is a hazy IPA from Radiant Beer Co. I like the retro look of the label and the light blue UCLA color scheme and now it is time to taste the beer…

This has a proper hazy look to it and it also has the requisite palate grit as well so it is off to a solid start. The dominant flavor is lemon. One of the most lemony Hazies that I have had in recent memory. It has a really soft mouth feel but the hops keep delivering through it.

Poker Face

I admit that I do not have a poker face. If I did have one, it has since evaporated. Others have mastered subtlety and can eve pretend that they like that candle you bought them for their birthday even though they have not lit a candle in decades.

That is all preamble to this post about instant reactions to beer. Read it HERE.
