The ABV (Alcohol By Volume) of A-SLO-HA IPA is 6.5%. I had the pleasure of trying this beer recently and let me tell you, it was a delightful experience.
The first thing that caught my attention was the name itself, A-SLO-HA. It’s a clever play on words, combining the laid-back attitude of “Aloha” with the slower pace of life in San Luis Obispo, known as SLO. It immediately transported me to a tropical island paradise, where I could imagine myself sipping this beer on a sandy beach with the warm breeze in my hair.
Upon pouring the beer, I was greeted with a beautiful golden color that hinted at the flavors to come. The aroma was intoxicating, with notes of juicy tropical hops wafting up from the glass. It was like a burst of sunshine in a bottle.
Taking my first sip, I was met with a wave of hoppy goodness that danced on my taste buds. The tropical flavors were front and center, with hints of mango, pineapple, and passionfruit. It was a juicy explosion of flavor that made me feel like I was biting into a ripe piece of fruit.
But what really set this beer apart was the addition of real tangerine. The tangy sweetness of the tangerine added another layer of complexity to the beer, balancing out the hop bitterness and creating a harmonious flavor profile. It was like a tropical cocktail in beer form.
As I continued to drink, I couldn’t help but appreciate the craftsmanship that went into creating this beer. The balance of flavors was spot on, with neither the hops nor the tangerine overpowering the other. It was a true marriage of ingredients, resulting in a beer that was both refreshing and full of character.
At 6.5% ABV, A-SLO-HA IPA had just enough alcohol content to give it a slight kick without being overwhelming. It was the perfect beer to sip on a lazy afternoon, allowing me to relax and unwind while still enjoying the flavors and aromas that it had to offer.
A-SLO-HA IPA is a fantastic beer that combines the best of both worlds – the tropical hop flavors of an IPA with the refreshing sweetness of real tangerine. With its 6.5% ABV, it’s a beer that can be enjoyed leisurely, allowing you to embrace the spirit of A-SLO-HA and transport yourself to an island paradise, even if just for a moment. So go ahead, grab a bottle and let the waves of juicy tropical hops and tangerine wash over you. Cheers!
