Gilgamesh Hazy IPA
Gilgamesh Brewing

Don't recognize the can so probably had on tap. Don't remember where or when I had this beer though. Must have been very good from my rating.

 

not really floral or hazy, more cloudy than anything. Unclear which hops were used. Very little head or carbonation. Has a good mouthfeel though and I like the use of oats.

12 oz can from Brewer's haven. Either my palate has gone bad, or this beer has. I'll stick by my palate. Hazy pour, but kind of dull. Overripe citrusy aroma, skunky, tartness. Will sample again given the opportunity.

 

im stoked on these guys right now, and while the genre and naming of this beer couldnt have any less soul, its a good beer from a brewery i am learning does everything pretty well, and i hope they come to idaho full time, its good stuff, across the board, from what i have had so far. here we have the rare hazy ipa thats light and effervescent and still quite well refined. its only pale in color, lighter than a lot of them, and plenty of light passes through this. its got a lot of character, tons of citrus for me, navel orange and tangerine and even kumquat, sweet lemon too, all really fresh, and not just in the aroma but in the flavor too, perfect transition from one to the other, and with a little bit of bitterness too. its light on the grain side, mild cereal there but thats it, its dry and almost soda-esque in feel to me, explosive carbonation and fast finishing, especially for a hazy. this is really modern and good, maybe citra and amarillo driven, i dont have any information on it, but something like that, maybe galaxy too, a really neat hop profile, even like some beers ive had of late dry hopped with chinook, which has fruity potential like this as well when used right, id love to know, but either way, its pretty darn good. ive liked all the recent beers ive had from these guys, and while i would have named this something other than hazy ipa if i was in charge, i like the liquid in the can a lot.

Hazy gold with three fingers of bone color head. Swathes of lace appear as the head drops.
Smell is floral hops and bread crust malts.
Taste is floral hops with bread crust malts.
Mouthfeel is light with easy carbonation. Finish is lightly dry and somewhat balanced.
Overall a tasty hazy IPA. Canned on 6/11/2019.
