I’m not sure dank is a word you want to use when you’re describing your beer. I’m also not sure that the bitterness is balanced. But I’m also not sure either of those is a bad thing. I’m not sure they’re good things, either. I lack general overall certainty about this beer, but it’s interesting enough that I am totally willing to come back to it at some point.

TAKE TWO (February 12, 2023): Just picked this up at random at Stoney's last night, and was told as I was checking out that Indiana City is folding. I had heard that they were trying to find a buyer and that their stuff would be up for auction soon if they did not, so I guess this might be it. If true, it's a damn shame, and not just because they make great beer. They also distribute way more of their stuff than most breweries in Indianapolis. My second take on this is that it's interesting, but a little muddled. There's a fruit flavor that isn't quite mixed up enough to be called fruit cocktail, but isn't anything specific, either; and the finish is somewhere between dry and bitter. The second one, poured into the same mug from whence came the first, gives me a hint of papaya and maybe a bit of grapefruit; and it remains interesting. I don't love it the way I've loved some of their other stuff, but I like it enough to want to keep drinking it (and to want to stock up on it if they really are going to fold).
