Classic Juice Bomb – w/ even more classic, juicy flavor!

We’ve added fresh orange peel & dialed up the ABV for the perfect complement to an even bigger explosion of tropical, citrusy, American hop flavor.

Resiny & balanced, upfront & easy-drinking, Fresh Pressed Juice Bomb is the perfect refresher when you want something hazy, golden, & bursting with real hop flavor.

12oz can. Purchased at Casanova Liquors, Hudson WI. Can bottom is stamped 'CANNED ON 09/25/22'.
Hazy, pale gold colored body, with an orange tint. One finger of off white head with an orange tint. Leaves behind some spots and short strings of lacing.
Aroma has a malt base but there is a lot of citrus orange as the main smell.
Taste is dominated by citrus orange and orange peel. Malt base as support. Mostly sweet but gets a touch of pith/peel bitterness in the aftertaste.
Medium mouth feel. Smooth texture with a little bite at the tip of the tongue. Good carbonation.
At four months in the can this juicy beer has held up quite well. Lots of orange influence.

Super clean and hazy light orange look, just like it's mother. Little fresher fruit aroma, strong fruit taste with a perfect balance of woodsy aroma. Nice white cap, drank on tap in a glass. Very clean, not a huge difference from the original juice bomb.

As the BA adding this beer to the database, I will provide the information that's on the can before reviewing it. . . .

The front of the can describes it as a "NEIPA w/fresh orange peel."

The back of the can describes it as an India Pale Ale w/Fresh Orange Peel. It also indicates an ABV of 7.2% - which is consistent with Sloop's recent "West Coast" version of Juice Bomb, and not the 6.5% ABV of "regular" Juice Bomb.

On to the review. . . .

A: Poured from the 12 oz can into a Feiden's tulip. Body is definitely juicy/hazy in appearance. Orangey-golden with a finger's worth of white head on top.

S: Oranges jump out of the glass as I pour it. Ditto as I stick my nose in the glass, where it's all citrus (oranges).

T: Tastes like oranges and orange peel over a modestly hoppy NEIPA. Finishes with modest lemony bitterness on the back end of the palate, provides some balance. Alcohol not noted at all.

M: Very fine and active carbonation makes this one feel less like a NEIPA and more like a "regular" IPA. Call it medium in heft, though it drinks lighter. I think the carbonation helps this one feel "cleaner" than many of the heavier, juicier NEIPAs.

O: Good stuff, though I'm not sure that it improves on the original.
