I know it is frowned upon to mention the cost of a beer, but this beer is priced double the cost of Heady Topper and if you are gonna soak your customers to this degree, Grimm, ya better have the goods to back it up.

Pours a beautiful turbid gold with a quick to leave off white finger of foam that leaves stupid lacicles on the glass that last for the ride.

Sweet graperfruit, honeydew melon, sativa herb, and neutral sweet make a delicious, if light strength, aroma.

Lt./med. strength taste, pretty much just like the aroma, with the neutral sweet never getting out of hand. End of sip is juicy with just a hint of pine.

Light bodied, lwo carb., clean flavors, so so finish that shuts off pretty quickly.

Unless Grimm lowers the price of this beer, or the others I have tried, I am one person who shall NEVER buy another one.

Gifted can, dated 3/23
Pours a beautiful, bright, radiant, hazygolden, almost neon golden orange-yellow.
Not muddy, pale or sickly looking
Aroma is very light.some light fruity yeasty esters and some alcohol (8%)
Taste is a carnival, and cavalcade of festive fruits- stonefruit, melon, lil zing of pear, a basket of ripe tropical fruits...the pineapple really standing out.
Mouthfeel is also quite nice. While some in this style are thick, chewy, undercarbed, and difficult to get down, Lambo excels here with a soft carbonation, and light little bubbles. Actually a little happy hint of bitterness, too, which, again, isn't common for this style, but is much appreciated by this reviewer.
Lastly, Lambo leaves with some lingering sweetness, alcohol and that lil bitter sizzleness.
Light in aroma, taste, and body, but overall, I enjoyed the ride!
Of the myriad, ubiquitous hazy, juicy DIPAs, this was quite enjoyable!

Look: hazy, pale gold, fluffy pillowy white cap with good retention, good lacing
Smell: earthy, watermelon, pear
Taste: berries, pear, melon, apricot, pine, citrus pith/rind bitterness, grapefruit
Feel: soft, med body, lower carbo, light fizziness
Overall: 8% abv. Yeah, we're runnin' a little bit hot tonight. Two sixteen ouncers for this review. The scent didn't jump out to me, but the taste did. Excellent citrus flavors came thru with a touch of pine. She's soft and there's a light citrus pithy/rind bitterness and light fizziness that feels quite nice. This brew is pretty damn good, and I got two more to go. Lucky me. Pairs well with the ultimate Lamborghini tune, Panama by Van Halen. Cheers!

Pours a thick cloudy light gold with a bit of head. Citrusy aromas and flavors, very slight bitterness, and a thick, creamy feel. Just one of the very softest and smoothest NEIPAs out there.

16 oz can

Pours a hazy pale yellow with a sudsy white head. Moderate retention with minimal lacing.

Aroma has notes of pineapple, mango and stone fruit, as well as grapefruit and a hint of bready malt.

Flavor has passion fruit, candied peach, pineapple, mango and grapefruit. A little bit of lime zest and sweet dough.

Medium bodied with lower carbonation. Incredibly soft. Silky. Finishes dry. Drinks like a 6% beer.

Overall this is a very good NEIPA. Despite having visited Grimm a few times several years ago, I never got a chance to try this one. The flavor and aroma don't exactly explode out of the glass but it's such an absurdly drinkable and well-balanced beer.

16 oz can dated 4/7/2025. Less than a month old.

Hops: El Dorado, Simcoe, Citra

I've heard about this one for a while and just randomly stumbled upon it at the grocery store. $23.99 for a 4 pack of tallboys? Whatever, take my money.

This is peak New England style IPA. Super soft, juicy and barely a trace of alcohol at 8%. This is why the style got so popular. Grimm doesn't miss.

Totally hazy straw pastel yellow body, white soapy sticky lace down the glass. Nose is crisp clean citrus with a bit of bread crust behind that, then mango, peach. Taste is toasted cracker malt in the front followed by fruit, mango, orange, lemon rind, noticeable alcohol slickness in the back then cut by dry hop finish. Medium to thick/creamy bodied with light carbonation and resiny hops and alcohol towards the end. Bitter, fruity, boozy, creamy to start then dry to finish, delicious.

Copenhagen 1/1 2021. 47,3 cl can from Mikkeller web-shop. Drawing of outline of a futuristic car on the can.

Pours opaque hazy golden yellow with a small white head. Settles as thin, creamy layer of foam struggling to cover the surface of the beer. Substantial lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a fermented sweet odor of exotic fruit mingling with a citric scent. Mango and passion fruit. Alcohol. Lime and grape fruit.

Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a slightly stronger citric bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter and lingers for a while. Semi-dry finish.

Nice well-balanced NEIPA.
