New England style double India Pale Ale with "Phantasm" grapes added.
You Like 'A Da Juice? Well then, how about a little More Juice?
We might not have traveled to Mt. Olympus, but this juice is worth the squeeze. We added the ever-elusive Phantasm to the whirlpool of this brew. Derived naturally from New Zealand Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc grapes, this powder injects aromas such as citrus, guava, and passion fruit. Not to mention - this beer was quadruple dry-hopped with Mosaic, Galaxy, Ekuanot, and Citra hops. Juice lords, rejoice!

This is a true New England haze bomb, much more what one might expect from Trillium or Tree House than from Beer'd. Head production, retention, and lacing are nice. The opaque body pours murky from the can, and settles out with a dark orange color, with beige-tinged off-white foam.
True to the name and description, this nose is phenomenally juicy, combining notes of mango, papaya, passion fruit, tangerine, lemon, melon, white grape, and strawberry with mild dankness, pepper, and a pinch of bright green kitchen herbs.
Just as juicy on the palate (with similar notes as presented on the nose), while bringing the heft and moderate sweetness of the heavy malt base and high ABV to the mix. At the same time, there's a slightly dry, almost vegetal quality on the back third, a combination of the hop varietal selection and massive amount of dry-hopping. That late flavor can't help but detract from an otherwise delectable juicy experience, but only slightly; the result is still a delicious and absolutely massive hop (haze) bomb.
If this is one of Beer'd's truest attempt at a murk bomb, so too is this about the best representation of the NE-style IPA mouthfeel: creamy, soft, with just enough liveliness. It drinks easy, with enough bite about the gums to remind you that you are drinking a beer, but almost zero alcohol burn (and no astringent hop burn), but creamy, soft, and full-bodied.
