hopIQ found 10 beers with the same citrusy and orange character as Light Year. Light Year is a double IPA that Grimm has brought back regularly since 2016, double dry-hopped with Galaxy, Columbus, Mosaic and Citra. Orange and pineapple lead in aroma and flavour, joined by the purple-fruit character typical of Southern Hemisphere hops, subtle pine and a strong dank, herbal backbone from the Columbus. The body is medium with a slightly oily texture, the alcohol well hidden, and a firm bitterness closes it out. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
