Philosophical Ideologies of Moralistic Indignation DIPA
Burial Beer Co.

Very good offering from Burial. One of my favorite breweries. This DIPA is similar to their other DIPAS. A murky/ hazy straw color poured into a teku. There’s very little on the smell, some dank ripe fruit. Taste does not disappoint; very robust, tart citrus. If you’re are either a hazy DIPA fan or a Burial devotee, you’ll be impressed!

A friend of mine picked this up from the Burial South Slope location 2-21-22 for $5.50. Canned in February, consumed 4-3-22. Cold stored since purchase.

Beer poured a turbid orange with a pretty good white head.

Nose is a very nice blend of tropical and citrus hops.

Taste is spot on with a light but larger malt base that is hopped with a multitude of hop varieties that are well chosen and leave a tropical and citrus fruit bowl flavor. Finishes with a touch of rind and zest bitterness; just slightly more on the bitter side - 6/10 on my scale.

Mouthfeel is light bodied and very refreshing.

Overall a well executed blending of hops that leave one pondering what flavor will i get next!

 

A - Pours milky orange, opaque, and white head, short, fading quickly to a wisp. The lacing is tight, leaving lots of lines on the glass.

S - Opens with strong hop, citrus beneath, baby aspirin chalky bitterness through all, but that is not a bad thing when you get this kind of hop melange going.

T - Front is orange citrus, a bit of sweetness without more specificity, and a finish that is bright and slightly bitter.

M - Slick and bright, moderate weight, a tart finish.

O - So good. Delicious. Such a wonderful beer.

Apparently taking the high road in morality as well as IPA making, Burial Beer preaches a craft beer gospel through a hoppy taste that celebrates Galaxy, Simcoe, Vic Secret, Sabro, Incognito and Cryo Idaho 7 hops. Although hazy, there's a bitter balance that makes the IPA responsible for hop head purists.

Pouring a grain-rich appearance of peachy-taupe with hints of orange and gold, the dull matte finish on the glass promises richness and sweetness. Above a frothy eggshell cap flows the rounded and generic hoppy scent of tropical, citrus and orchard fruit with hints of herb and spice. That promised sweetness resonates on the tongue with a creamy grain display of poundcake, honey and cereal.

With that strong hop profile lingering slightly behind, the middle palate is a consistent and equal blend of grapefruit, orange, mango, pineapple, papaya, pawpaw, berry, passionfruit and white wine all in a candied fruit display. The cocktail of fruits is lasted only by a patient transition toward hop spice with suggestive flavors of gin, hemp, pine, mint, pepper and parsley.

Full, plush and creamy throughout, there's a creamed coconut character that trails the fruit, leading to a taste that resides on the sweeter side of bitter-sweet with an extension of peppery bitterness and botanical gin-like spice. Philosophical Ideologies of Moralistic Indignation is a rather delicious Imperial New England-styled IPA that just gets lost in its complicated hop profile.

Released 4/14/21; drank 5/3/21 @ the Yarchives.

Opaque dull orange/yellow appearance.

A rough pour yielded a big white head; a thick curtain of tree-rung lace.

Orange juice, strawberry & mild ganja notes in the nose.

Soft, medium mouthfeel.

Orange juice & mild strawberry flavors; nice dry ganja finish.

Another winner from Burial; about as good as the NE IPA genre gets.
