I don’t know much about Brew Gentlemen, but I’ve heard some good things. So naturally when I saw this high rated NEIPA on Tavour I knew I had to grab it. Let’s see how it stacks up to the rest of the pack
Pours a hazy pale gold with 3 fingers of soapy off white head that slowly fades to a cap and leaves decent lacing
The nose is very tropical, but it’s has a nice brightness that sets it apart. I’m picking up on aromas of overripe cantaloupe, lime zest, bready malt, passionfruit, grassy hops, white grape, light white pepper, and honey
While it doesn’t have quite the same immediacy in taste, it’s still super vibrant. On the front end of the sip I’m tasting pineapple juice, passionfruit, grassy hops, overripe cantaloupe, bready malt, lemon zest, and light white pepper. The swallow brings notes of lime zest, passionfruit, tannic white wine, crackery malt, floral hops, honey, pineapple juice, and light grass
A medium body pairs with moderate carbonation, resulting in a slick beer. Finishes dry and very refreshing with a firm bitterness
Wow, this is way better than I expected. I think I *get* Galaxy hops now

poured from a 12oz slimline can into a veil willi becher pint glass. pours a hazy, murky orange with over two fingers of firm, off-white foam. dank resin, tropical fruits, a hint of pine on the nose. taste follows. galaxy is a great hop varietal and they show it off well here. orange, pineapple, mango, passionfruit yet it has a dank weed quality to it as well. so good. thick, full mouthfeel. this thing tasted and smelled best to me at about the last third of the glass. not warm but warmer than fridge temp and it was bursting with aroma and flavor. a very well done all-galaxy DIPA.

Super hazy orangey yellow pour with two fingers of white foam and decent lacing, very nice. Smells of citrus especially grapefruit, melon, big papaya with dank and weedy hops. Taste is much the same, sharper definition and with a touch of onion added. Dank, sharp hops, juicy, soft dryness define the feel, reminds me of certain neipas I had in massachusetts last year. This is excellent, really impressed with the ipas I have had from these gentlemen so far.

Bought this on Tavour because I heard it was one of the top Pennsylvania beers. Lives up to the rating. Pale straw colors, very hazy, mild lacing. Notes of mango, pineapple, and orange on the nose, juicy and dank. Taste is quite the same, not as strong, but there’s character in the subtlety. Lighter to medium bodied, crisp, mouth watering finish.
