Last bottle night -- with chili and cheese taquitos, and brownie bites for dessert:
The label said best before March 2015. They were wrong.

I might just drink 12 of these today. One of the best session IPA's I've had.

Uh -oh -- what is this? We drink their Jai Alai all the time, often half-and-half with their outstanding Maduro Brown, but haven't come across this one anywhere.

Its really good. I bought it in a 12 pack sampler
Any idea how it differs from the High Alai? Off to google I go....Its really good. I bought it in a 12 pack sampler
Edit: I have no idea what they're saying here --
"Tropical and bright with a full palate of flavor and a potency designed with moderation in mind, Jai Low IPA lowers the intensity of a typical India Pale Ale while maintaining the highest quality and hop flavor possible. All the qualities found in the finest IPAs, including citrus aromas and flavors, bread-like maltiness, and a moderate, snappy bitterness are found, making this beer a deceptively tempered addition to Cigar City Brewing’s line-up of hop-forward creations."
How do you lower the intensity, moderate the bitterness, and maintain the hop level? IPA Lite?
lower alcohol content (session IPA) "potency designed with moderation in mind"
"deceptively tempered" - and saying you won't notice due to the flavor
they don't say anything about moderating the bitterness

Yeah, that.
I'd say it's milder but the flavor is great. If I wanted a session beer I'd prefer this or the session IPA from Lawson's.

Haven't tried it yet
What's the ABV on that one Jim? It's right there in the lower left corner, but i can't make it out.

It's only 4% actually. For only 4% is has excellent flavor.

That's incredible. If they can make a 4% IPA that tastes like a 6% IPA, then I'll put it in my rotation. Perfect for the pool or the boat. I haven't found one yet. Lot's of pretty good ones around 5% and some drinkable ones at 4.5%. That's it so far for me.

It might be a little bit of a stretch to say it taste like 6 percenter, but I'd recommend getting some if you can and see for yourself. I certainly enjoy it more than Founders All Day IPA, which I do like. Lawson's Session IPA is excellent and I would put this about par or just below that one, if you've ever tried it. Problem is I've only seen the Jai Low in the 12 pack sampler so far, but all the other beers in the sampler are excellent, so it's cool.
