Fragments and Pieces
Deciduous Brewing Company

 

 

Poured into a 16 oz Snulip glass canned recent for sure. Pours a very attractive hazy yellow with a solid finger sticky white head that leaves thin streaks of lace with excellent retention.

Aroma is orange starburst, guava, peach, and apricot. 4.5

Taste follows orange starburst, peach, guava, and apricot really tasty. 4.5

Mouthfeel is above average, soft gentle carbonation, not sticky or dry, and at 8.2% big flavor but easy sliding down. 4.75

Overall I like this one, the orange starburst thing is all I could come up with. Really worth a shot. 4.5

From a 16oz can, undated. Purchased at the brewery 12/03/21. Served in an IPA glass.

Pours a dull and murky orange with a finger-plus of soft, lathery suds. Retention is excellent, leaving a heavy, foamy cap and a solid curtain of lacing.

Nose is vanishingly faint. I’m getting something vaguely earthy-fruity but, honestly, I’m working so hard at it, it could be my imagination.

Taste is, in fact, earthy-fruity, and bends hard toward the harsh-and-sour end of the bitter spectrum. Overripe grapefruit, orange peel, lemon seeds, earthy, spicy grit and bark. Sour grain aftertaste.

Feel is juicy up front, drying on the back end, medium-hefty bodied with seltzer-like carbonation.

Overall, it’s alright, maybe kind of harsh. Is it OK to notice that Deciduous’ IPA game isn’t what it used to be?

 

 

Pours very cloudy bright gold color with a thin bright white head. Great start! Aroma has mellow citrus notes along with what I think is cinnamon and maybe a touch of vanilla - not dominant though. The flavor is super smooth orange and light mango. Just fantastic. Feel is soft but the elevated effervescence makes it feel crisper. Man this is A great IPA! One of my faves from them - similar to Blade.
