Let’s finish off summer with a crusher! Fonio Krush is a snappy, tropical cold IPA brewed with Krush hops and Fonio, an ancient African grain. This beer is bright, bold, and packed with stone fruit and berry notes

I got a tall boy can of this beer off the single shelf from the beer store that is located just around the corner from my old house. It poured a clear golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had citrus fruit notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright malt base with citrus fruit peel spice presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Fair State FōNIō Krush Cold IPA, 6% ABV. Pours slightly-hazy orange, with a nice 4+ finger white head that left great lacing. Aroma is fruity. Taste is citrus, tropical fruit, and what I presume is fonio, quite bitter. Decent mouthfeel, overall very good.
