Penultimate Unicorn
Proclamation Ale Company

Pours a hazy golden color with a nice head and lacing
Aroma has pleasant tropical and citrus hints
Taste has a well balanced tropical and citrus flavor
A medium bodied well carbonated beer
A great NEIPA

I would have labeled this an Imperial IPA vice a NEIPA, just based on the .abv and robust taste, but it is New England based all the way. Poured from a 16 oz can into a pint glass, this beer features a somewhat darker than straw yellow color and a big foamy white head with good retention and lacing. The aroma and taste were assertive, fruity and nicely bitter. the fruit flavors were not the usual grapefruit and pineapple of most NEIPAs. The brewery describes the flavor as mango, cantaloupe and peach and I can't really disagree with that, The bitterness level was somewhat better than most NEIPAs, even the strong ones. Mouthfeel was crisp and somewhat bitter. There was a touch of alcohol "bite", but not enough to be an issue. I had it with a spicy Mexican casserole and it stood up very well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12oz can dated 9/15/20.

Pours cloudy yellow with plenty of tattered lacework and decent retention. Pungently hoppy in the nose with wafting booze. Candied tropical fruit. Peach, pineapple, mango, orange.
Medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Massive hop presence on the palate with plenty of warming alcohol. Fruit cocktail syrup spiked with booze. Finishes a bit sweet with lingering juicy fruit candies.

 

 

A - Pours a hazy orange with a one finger creamy white head. Heavy amount of soapy lacing.

S - Aroma is orange, pear and peach.

T - The taste tangerine, mango, pineapple, peach, lime and piney hops.

M - Medium body with medium carbonation. Creamy mouthfeel with a soft dry finish.

O - Really solid NEPA.

Surprisingly solid NE style IPA. Great flavors and consistently. 5/16/20 date printed on can. Pours a slightly hazy yellow color with some fluffy white head and spotty lingering lacing. Smells of ripe pineapple, lemon, orange, grapefruit, mango. Also some malt, vanilla and bread. Taste follows the nose, good balance between sweeter malt backbone and bracing hops. Nicely hidden high ABV. Smooth sticky mouthfeel, great carbonation. Very well done.

Thanks to Tavour for this beer. Pours a hazy orange color with a foamy white head that lasts quite a while. Aroma is orange juice. Tastes of orange juice and other fruit. Sweet with a slight hoppy bite at the end. Very enjoyable.

Hazy yellow body with an off-white cap. Peach, apricot, pear, grapefruit, orange, lychee and papaya in a very fruit nose. Taste also follows of much of these fruits with enchantment to the tropical variety. Hops are pine centric yet mellow on the back end but with the vibrant nature of all the fruits you don’t mind. Very smooth and full yet light, helps to accent the fruits. Goes down dangerously easy given the ABV

 

 

16oz can into a pint glass. Canned 6/16/20, so a month old. Tavour shipment.

Thick murky dark orange juice body. Small bright white head persists leaving a little lacing.

Not much on the nose, just a little mustiness.

But there is a lot going on in the taste department. Juicy, fruity, slightly sweet. There is a spreading warmth throughout the throat and chest. A light bitterness toward the end. Thick and tasty.

Mouth is full, finish warm and sweet with a whisper of bitterness. Had a dry hopped spicy touch as well.

Overall, a high abv DIPA that you want to drink way faster than you should.
