On the bottom of the can is an easy-to-read canning date of 6/1/20, which puts this at about two weeks old at the time of review. The real cans have a beautiful sky blue color that distinguishes them easily from the yellow cans of Sip of Sunshine.

I’m reviewing Little Sip from an unlabeled can that came straight from Lawson’s hence the use of the koozie in lieu of a label. Little Sip, you’ll be happy to hear, is also produced in Waitsfield. Lawson’s flagship Sip of Sunshine is technically contract brewed out of Two Roads Brewing in Connecticut while Double Sunshine is brewed on location at the new Waitsfield, Vermont brewhouse, which I visited last year. Now, the beer community has been fixated on where these beers are physically brewed, which is a valid concern. Its 6.2% puts it dead center in the world of IPAs. In keeping with Lawson’s unusual naming conventions, Little Sip is not a little IPA by any means. It took until this year for Lawson’s to finally fill that gap with Little Sip IPA. That leaves a huge gap for a regular strength IPA.

Then there’s a whole series of outstanding Session IPAs such as Super Session #7. Their most famous beer, Sip of Sunshine IPA is a Double IPA by technical terms at 8% ABV, which is confusingly the same strength as Double Sunshine. My personal favorite is Chinooker’d IPA followed closely by Double Sunshine. Lawson’s makes some of the best IPAs on the planet. Lawson’s Finest Liquids – Lawson’s Finest Little Sip IPA – 16oz can served in Rastal Harmony glass – 6.2% ABV Notes of grapefruit and pineapple complement this delectably balanced beer, with a crushable 6.2% ABV. Little cousin to Lawson’s Finest flagship beer Sip of Sunshine IPA, Little Sip has a juicy, fruit-forward character layered with tropical hop flavors and bright floral aromas. It never disappoints! We’re elated to announce and introduce to you the newest addition to the Sunshine family, Little Sip IPA. It’s the beer you grab for the victorious celebration after you make a birdie on the golf course and it keeps you company as you mow the lawn.
