Can shared by Joe Welsh. Thanks man!

 

 

Pours a hazy light orange with thick, soft foam.

Smell is citrusy and fruity with hints of tart, slightly unripe mango.

Taste is also pretty fruity with citrus and some pineapple along with a slight tartness. Milder bitterness than I expected.

Mouthfeel is medium, well carbonated.

Overall, a good, fairly mild IPA, that's very drinkable.

 

Got this from spelingchampeon. 16 ounce can into tulip glass, best before 5/31/2018. Pours opaquely hazy golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and rocky white head with amazing retention, that reduces to a larger cap that lasts. Thick soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, red apple, passion fruit, mango, melon, berry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops, fruity/spicy yeast, and bready malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of big tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, red apple, passion fruit, mango, melon, berry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, grassy bitterness; and peppery yeast spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, red apple, passion fruit, mango, melon, berry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops, fruity/spicy yeast, and bready malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and minimal lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitter/spiciness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and fairly crisp/resinous balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.7%. Overall this is a delicious NEIPA/Saison hybrid style. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, fruity/spicy yeast, and bready malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and easy to drink with the moderately bitter/spicy/resinous/drying finish; not overly aggressive. Great balance of juicy/dank hops, saison yeast, and bready malts. A very enjoyable and unique offering. Blends both styles really well.

 

 

 

Bought a 4-pack for $10.99. 8 days old at the time of purchase, canned 5-31. This is a solid NEIPA with a soft mouthfeel and tropical fruit/citrus flavors with slight bitterness. Very nice at a great price.

SAVOR DC 2018

POUR: On draft into a plastic 8oz tester. Enjoyed at D.C. Brau via Hopfest 2018. APPEARANCE: NE style. Light orange in color and cloudy. AROMA: Grapefruit and lemon zest. TASTE: Follows nose. Some funk. Light on the palette and smooth. AFTERTASTE: Low bitterness. NOTES: Nice entry into the popular NE style brew for DC Brau. REVIEW/ RATING: Very good/ 4 out of 5.

16oz can from CBC for $2 at home.

Really good beer - didn't think DC Brau would go in the NE IPA direction, but this is pretty solid.

Really good looking fluffy that sticks around. Hazy light orange body. Not a big nose - faint pine, mango, and tropical fruit. Taste is more punchy, with a smooth fruity flavor of pineapple, orange, and light pine. Low bitterness. Feel is really nice, medium full bodied and soft.
