Brain Freeze fruit IPA , this go around we went with passion fruit, guava, lime, and a pinch of vanilla then dry hopped with a blend of El Dorado, Wai-iti, and Citra cryo. Over the top tropical notes smooth as silk! (contains lactose).

Brain Freeze 2.0 was a small-batch, SoPro Taproom-only release in July 2021 on draft and in pint can 4-pks. Had poured from pint can, bottom stamped (apparently) canned on "07/23/21," into nonic pint.
Pours straight orange juice, with (fruit pulp) floaties and sediment, and foamy 1-finger to huge near-white head, with decent retention and leaving nice Belgian lace scattered down the glass. Initial aroma of dry-hopping resin and then huge fruit, including melon and some citrus, off pour, with mild fruit continuing and a little vanilla and more funk joining as warms. Begins lime and sharp stone fruits and berries (pink guava and passion fruit I suppose), over creamy lactose body, complemented by nice touch of vanilla, before hop resin bite takes over and leads the fruit into a still creamy but crisp, surprisingly clean finish.
Even more of a milkshake than Brain Freeze OG. Tart, fruity, smooth, and creamy, then hop resin for a crisp finish, confirming that this is after all still a beer, and an IPA at that.
