{"product_id":"blindman-lightshadows-30-litre-keg","title":"Blindman Lightshadows - 30 Litre Keg","description":"\u003cp\u003eLightshadows is the \"little sibling\" to the legendary \u003cem\u003eLongshadows IPA\u003c\/em\u003e from Lacombe’s Blindman Brewing. It was born out of a desire to capture the intense, modern hop profile of a heavy-hitting IPA but in a \"Small IPA\" (or Session IPA) format. It is designed specifically for those who want the aromatic complexity of a craft flagship without the high alcohol content, making it one of the most flavor-dense \"light\" beers in Alberta.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeer Description\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Small IPA pours a hazy, pale lemon-gold with a surprisingly thick, frothy white head for its lower gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e Despite its low ABV, the nose is punchy and vibrant. It leads with a bright burst of lemon-lime zest and white grapefruit, followed by softer notes of ripe pineapple and a subtle piney dankness. It smells significantly \"bigger\" than it actually is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e On the tongue, it is light-bodied but avoids feeling thin or watery. It leads with a very lean, crackery malt base that serves as a clean canvas for the hops. The flavor profile is dominated by citrus pith and tropical fruit, finishing with a crisp, snappy bitterness that is assertive but balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfile:\u003c\/strong\u003e It has a highly sessionable ABV of 4.5% and a moderate bitterness. It is engineered for maximum \"crushability\" while maintaining a sophisticated hop presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blindman achieves the body of this beer through a clever use of flaked oats and wheat, which provides a silky mouthfeel and helps the beer retain its signature haze. It is heavily dry-hopped with the same premium varieties found in its bigger siblings (often Citra, Mosaic, or Simcoe), ensuring that the \"shadow\" of the hops remains long even in a lighter frame.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"300892 - Blindman Brewing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42599133085783,"sku":"127710","price":200.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2479\/4148\/files\/keg_9c99bee7-0223-431b-8451-eb217facb07b.jpg?v=1773172946","url":"https:\/\/zyn.ca\/products\/blindman-lightshadows-30-litre-keg","provider":"ZYN THE WINE MARKET LTD.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
