Tallboy from the brewery; no canning date and served slightly chilled.
Pours a hazy golden-amber colour, fitted with nearly two fingers of soapy, foamy white head that lasts for nearly five minutes. A thin, creamy cap and collar live on, with a narrow band of even lace stuck to the glass. It smells of raspberry ice cream and vanilla, with suggestions of floral, earthy hops and a whiff of ethanol.
I'm tasting raspberry, oatmeal, milk sugar and wheaty malts, with hints of strawberry and stone fruit underneath. Mild floral bitterness on the back end, with raspberry fruit & seeds dissipating into a sweet aftertaste with lingering vanilla. Medium-full in body, with middling carbonation that adds some semblance of spritz to this brew's smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Quite drinkable, even at 6%, but one serving is plenty for now.
Final Grade: 3.75, squeaking out a B+. Help Yourself To My Parent's Wardrobe is a solid take on the raspberry milkshake IPA trope, but hardly a standout in that category - I think I preferred My Neighbour's Pool. It's very smooth and definitely a palatable brew, but it all just seems... ok at best? The vanilla is a little overdone, and the raspberry is certainly 'there', but not in that juicy, fruity, tart, impactful manner: you know, like when the raspberry really pops. This just drinks like a hazy IPA with vanilla and raspberry flavouring added - competently done, but not a brew I'd eagerly buy again.
