The Philadelphia Experiment
HenHouse Brewing

 

 

Thanks Danny!
Slightly hazy, straw to gold in color. Fluffy white head, that is firm for a few minutes and then slowly tapers off to a thin filmy ring.
Aroma is smooth pineapple, tropical notes that are hard to nail down, and a very pleasant wet grain meets honey note.
Flavor follows with more of a balanced ride between the hops and the malt foreshadowed in the aroma.
Feel is fine for the style. Mild carbonation, medium mouth feel, and a mild slick finish.
Overall, a very pleasant ride. Nothing to make this one stand out big time, but quite sessionable.

Sweet, tropical hoppy, and hint of citrus nose on this one! Taste follows with a slightly malty, old school hoppy bitter finish. This may be a little past it's prime, but it is still tasty and drinkable.

 

Can from cask Flask Liquors 3 wks old.

The beer pours a hazy golden amber color with good head retention and lacing. Alas, this was to be as good as things were to get with this beer. On the nose, I'm surprised by how little I'm picking up. I'm getting a hint of orange juice and a slight bandaid aroma. Kind of weird actually. On the palate, this just isn't working for me. Initially, I pick up some sweet apricot and mango, but then I'm getting something of a dry, lightly burnt toast finish. There's a hint of alcoholic heat as well. The combination of flavors just isn't that pleasant. Mouthfeel is fairly full, but with a gritty, alcoholic finish. Alcohol is not well integrated into the flavor profile.

I've had worse IPA's, but this is pretty bad. Life is too short to drink bad beer, so down the drain this is going to go.

 

 

 

 

Canned 6/7/18, consumed 6/19/18

L: Uniformly hazy & cloudy light orange/brown with a nice head that left a good amount of lacing.

S: Danky, piney, weed-smelling hops with a tiny bit of citrus fruit notes. Not necessarily the most enticing.

T: More fruity here, still with dominant piney, danky, weedy hop notes.

F: Medium, not exactly soft or smooth, a bit of bitterness.

O: Decent hazy from Henhouse. Not a huge fan of the aroma, but the taste and everything else is fine. I'll be getting more Henhouse, but probably not this particular one.
