Jackie O's Brewpub

A - Bright yellow orange body, opaque, with a fat white head. Persistent cap, with extensive curtains of lacing.

S - Strong nose of citrus and pith, dank hop notes, but mostly orange pith with zest and flesh highlights.

T - Follows the nose, with an open of orange and grapefruit, a line of bitter pithiness, and some malty sweetness through the middle. The fruit fades, and an herbal hop finish, with moderate bitterness, closes things out.

M - Prickly carbonation, solid acidity, moderate weight, mild alcohol warmth, but much less than expected given the ABV. The lingering fade builds over time, and is main mark against what is otherwise an exceptional feel.

O - It is a good DIPA, an interesting NEIPA, and a tasty brew. Solid.

Look - great thick orangish milky with a nice white head and lacing
Smell - drank and citrus
Taste - juicy dank fruity citrus
Feel - thick and creamy with a light carb
Overall - pretty nice NE

 

 

 

 

I saved this for myself. ?I had one can. It's Christmas Eve. This is my highlight beer, and it lives up to the billing.

It pours the best looking hazy IPA I have seen. Loads of head and haze. The aroma is lovely hoppy skunk that isn't too overbearing. My sample may be a few days beyond ideal, but it is reasonably fresh. The taste is a nice malty hoppy balance. As usual. Jackie O's cooks up a winner. They are consistently one of the best at hazy IPA's.

Highly recommended. Now back to Christmas in the apocalypse.

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local Giant Eagle store. It poured a hazy smoothie orangish with thin white head that is leaving some nice lace. The scent had notes of orange whip/creme, pineapple and apricot. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with orange whip start that turns to a bitter pineapple and apricot finish. The mouthfeel was fuller in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

Canned on 11/23/21. 12oz can poured into a tulip.

Pours a hazy and cloudy golden yellow; fluffy white head that falls leaving nice retention and lacing. It looks your typical New England IPA.

The aromas have a nice amount of citrus, especially orange. Hints of cream. Malts are there.

The flavors follow the nose. More citrus leading the way. More orange along with some peach and apricot. Some damp grass in the mix. Nice hop flavors. Low bitterness. Subtle sweetness. Solid malt backbone. Finishes juicy. Alcohol is well hidden. This one is truly dangerously drinkable.

Mouthfeel is full-bodied with moderate carbonation. It's fluffy, slightly creamy and slightly sharp.

This is a great "Hazy DIPA". Really nice flavors. Jackie O's consistency makes nice examples of this style, and this one is no different. The craftsmanship is on point. Well done. I really like it.
