Evil Incarnata
18th Street Brewery - Gary Taproom

 

 

 

 

Pours a murky, soft orange color with a creamy white head. The nose is spicy passion fruit and some juicy nectarines.

The citrus and passion fruit flavors dominate the taste, and there’s a floral component that is actually really enjoyable. The mouthfeel sits between pillowy and biting - wish the bite was a bit more prominent. Still, another really nice offering by 18th Street (and Burial).

 

Pours a cloudy pink-hued yellow-orange color with a half finger of near-white head. Solid lacing.

Sweet aroma of creamy tropical fruit with almost a cherry-vanilla hint to it.

Mild tropical fruit and cream again up front in the taste, but also with a grassy, floral, almost yeasty element coupled with a nice, moderate bitterness. There's a very slight nuttiness to it as well.

Full bodied and creamy feel with good carbonation upon swallowing.

Very enjoyable, well-balanced, drinkable beverage. 3/15/18 canned on date.

 

Appearance is a turbid dark grapefruit juice. Poured with a finger of white head.

Aroma is sweet citrus and definitely passion fruit.

Taste follows nose. Sweet citrus upfront with a nice passion fruit kick at the end. Very mild bitterness.

Feel is soft and supple. Carb is moderate.

Overall a very nice NEIPA. The fruit is actually a subtle addition as opposed to being way too overbearing.

Tasted in a Rastal Teku from a one pint can on April 2, 2018. Collaboration with Burial Brewing Company. Aromas and flavors of citrus, tropical and stone fruit.
