Feral King
Relic Brewing Co.

A: cloudy; medium gold in color; less than a 1 finger ivory head that receded to a thin collar; no lacing;

S: an odd combination of vanilla and orange;

T: floral and somewhat sweet; very mild bitterness on the finish;

M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation; dry finish;

O: aroma wasn't inviting; flavor was better, but too sweet for my liking; I usually like Relic's beer - not so much this one;

 

 

Look: Hazy, pale yellow with a thick, rocky, cream-colored head. Some brown and white floating material. The haze and floaties give it a bit of a green/brown cast.
Smell: Pine, citrusy grapefruit & orange. Nice and hoppy.
Taste: Lemon and grapefruit, some sweet malt. Lingering herbal hop bitterness. Overall, this IPA leans more toward the bitter hops side.
Feel: Medium-bodied with an impressive amount of lingering, prickly carbonation.
Overall: A fairly standard hazy IPA.

 

 

 

Appearance – Two finger head on a hazy yellow body.

Aroma – Citrus, floral, and light stone fruits. Interesting medley.

Taste – Pine, hop resins, and some definite herbal character, completely unlike the nose.

Mouthfeel – Somewhat sticky and a bit puckering.

Overall – Worth trying although reconciling the aroma with flavor is interesting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12oz can. Pours a hazy yellowish orange with an inch of head. Some lacing. The aroma is a blend of mint, pepper and tropical fruits. Tangerine, pineapple, orange, and lime. The taste is some herbal hops to go along with the fruit flavors. Guava, pineapple, tangerine and mango. Toasted malts towards the finish with some mint and herbal hops. A bit boozey. Dry mouthfeel and lightly carbonated. Another really good Imperial IPA by Relic.

 

 

 

L - pours a brownish orange. Enough haze that you can't see through it, but not too thick.

S -
