Enchantments (Version 24: Stuart Lake)
Icicle Brewing Company

banger, modern and great, on tap, good enough to go back for, and one of the better beers ive had from these guys, but they dont get enough credit for their best hoppy stuff, and i have thought that before when drinking them, this really is fantastic, great hop mix, citra and mosaic yeah, thats a bass note, but eclipse and galaxy are what pop it off and make it unique, not to thick and dense and starchy and soupy either, a definite pint beer, a repeater, glad i stumbled upon this. frosted pale yellow to blonde, hazy without a ton of density, high white headed from the tap, lace as it drinks, bubbly, a fine looking example of a style that i less frequently find objectively beautiful. aroma on this is the softer side of citra with then unique pops of kiwi fruit, green melon and its rind, and not quite ripe strawberry to me, lemongrass and navel orange in behind that, some canned pineapple perhaps from the mosaic but nothing catty, real modern and fruity, almost a kids cereal fruitiness to this, but its not too sweet to my nose, dry grain balance, nothing more, and cleanly fermented without any of that engineered yeast forcing it, at least to me. the flavor also has big citrus and melon, the hops start early with a sort of cryo level intensity, although the use of cryo is unconfirmed, just saying it begins right away, without the usual crescendo to the center, lemongrass again, a hint of vanilla, and with it a flash of grain sweetness, almost a confectionary sugar thing but only for a second, then mango and pineapple, papaya, and white grape, really compelling, juicy, and dynamic, each sip as good as the last, no real diminishing marginal utility with this one, which i feel like is rare with hazy types, could have had five or seven of these no worries. love the light but not zero bitterness at the end, i like the pale malt coming through just a bit for balance, and i like the clean lemony linger, slight like rubber inner tube in hot summer sun, a sensory thing i like, makes me feel like drinking this on one of those in a lake somewhere. excellent hazy, beautifully integrated mix of hops, this has a lot of personality and is supremely drinkable as they go. heck yeah!

16oz can from Brewers Haven. Hazy yellow pour, one finger foamy white head, solid lacing. Light grapefruit aroma, pithy. Taste is zesty, juicy, grapefruity. So soft, so tasty. Creamy feel
