Hoof Hearted Brewing

Hazy brilliant yellow color with inch and a half thick white head. Lacing starts at the slightest head reduction.
Subtle citrus smell with matching taste. Sweet peach and citrus orange flavors. Smooth drinking with slight alcohol aftertaste (which is not off putting at all). More juice than hops.
Beautiful big beer!

 

Poured into a 16 oz Snulip glass canned on 7/01/24. The reps dropped that beer already 5 plus months old, awesome. Pours an attractive hazy orange with a solid finger sticky white head that leaves thick streaks of lace with excellent retention. 4.25

Aroma is peach, mango, mandarin, and apricot. 4.25

Taste follows peach, mango, mandarin, apricot, and a little alcohol is present. 4.25

Mouthfeel is above average, soft gentle carbonation, not sticky or dry, and at 10% it goes down rather easy considering. 4.5

Overall I learned were to find the date for this brewery and considering the age it is still rather tasty. 4.25

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pours an opaque orange with three fingers of off-white foam. Foam is great, and sticks around for awhile. Aroma is strong and potent. It's a heavy handed one-two of orange and tangerine, with heavy tropical fruits behind. Green hop notes and a dry alcohol note sits behind. It smells heavy and hot. Flavor profile is tangerine, orange, and mango, with lighter notes of melon dew. Green hops and heavy alcohol are both present, pulling this off balance. Mouth feel is medium-thick with a soft, crushed velvet effervescence. Overall, while it has some solid hop notes, the alcohol content cannot be ignored. It lacks smoothness relative to its profile, being a bit more of a chore to drink than other triple NE IPAs at 10% ABV.

Served in a 2023 AM membership glass from a 16oz can.

 

 

 

 

I thought this beer was absolutely phenomenal. Hoof Hearted has a knack for churning out great frappe/unfiltered/cloudy/hazy IPAs, and this is another one that is a great addition to their overall portfolio of them!

Look: Cloudy, light yellow, almost resembling pulp-heavy OJ
Smell: Strong, juicy citrus notes instantly hit. There's definitely some heat on this one based on the ABV, which I'd consider to be an as-advertised trait.
Taste: I was shocked how smoothe the taste was for a beer of this ABV. I honestly thought I was sipping orange juice. It was extremely refreshing on the 90 degree day that I drank it during.
Feel: As a cloud beer, it definitely has a lot going on with the mouthfeel, and changes by the sip. However, I found it to be perfectly refreshing and true to the overall look of the beer.

Overall, a solid addition to the Hoof Hearted lineup! Keep up the great work!
