DDH Soaked
New Glory Craft Brewery

Tropical hoppy standard hazy IPA nose on this one. The taste follows with subdued notes that I had to search for. It was smooth and crushable , though! Low IBUs make for a fairly smooth ride through the swallow.

 

 

L: Embodies that gorgeous bright yellow color that I have learned to admire in my NEIPAs. The haze is evident- zero clarity. In terms of head, about a finger formed from a standard pour and retained rather nicely. Minimal amounts of lacing reside on the glass.
S: Subtle yet appealing. Very grassy with aromas of lemon, grapefruit, black pepper, mango, pineapple and pine. Mild yeast presence.
T: Super tasty, with a nice mixture of your typical NE-juice but with plethora of hops due to the DDH process. Flavor is straight juice upfront but the finish is bitter and semi-dry.
F: Medium body, light weight. I feel that if the carbonation was knocked down a tad it would feel even better. Still, a nice feel to the beer.
O: A darn enjoyable brew, and perhaps my favorite IPA I've yet to try from New Glory. The DDH process really shines here which takes it to the next level. I am very grateful to have tried. Cheers!

 

 

 

Very nice NEIPA presentation with a murky straw yellow body and a fluffy white cap. Smell is citrus-heavy, though not as pungent as one might expect from a double-dry-hopped hazy IPA. Taste is very interesting in complexity, and here, the amount of hops dumped into the beer becomes apparent. Citrus is still around, but it is now joined by bright melon as well an earthy overtone. Feel is good, standard for a well-produced NEIPA; not much to say here. This beer is in-your-face hoppy in the taste, and I do enjoy it. It is also affordable, and I would definitely buy it again.
