At the end of a long night of delivering presents, we imagine that Santa’s had enough milk and cookies and instead, loves to settle in with a juicy and delicious IPA. Kringle Juice features an initial blast of orange and tangerine in the aroma that blends with flavors of pear and kiwi over a silky smooth mouthfeel. This beer pairs extremely well with caroling, mistletoe, and good tidings.

Pours a cloudy pale yellow. Big foam. Juicy hop aroma. Buttery papaya body. Smooth. Sweet juicy finish. Easy drinking. Definitely Kringle worthy.

Hazy yellow with pink tint, and one finger of ivory head. Thin ring of lacing all the way round the glass.
Smells of grapefruit, tangerine, slight pineapple and mango, and fresh biscuity malt.
Taste is processed orange (not exactly marmalade, but not quite fresh either) papaya, kiwi, and a hint of canned pear. Odd combination, but it works. Medium bitterness.
Feel is medium, and juicy, initially lightly creamy, finishing with moderate, fine, sharp carbonation tingle-then-bite, that reduces the perceived sweetness somewhat.
Enjoyable, as a single, and fine as part of a mix pack, but probably not something I would seek out as a stand-alone. Don't think I could do two in a row.
