B.A.M. Nectar (DIPA)
Lupulin Brewing

 

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local beer store located just around the corner. It poured a hazy orangish with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had dank orange peel presence. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with orange peel zeal. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

Canned on 7/9/21 into Bearded Iris Homestyle glass.
16 oz can. This one says 8% though, not 5.5. Wonder if they changed it?

Hazy, juicy medium blonde-orange with a tall creamy cap of 2 fingers. Looking just right.

Aroma of sweet orange juice, a little grapefruit peel, bready pale malt, and some very light wet grass.

Flavor is very similar. It opens with orange peel and bitter grapefruit, and follows up with orange cream, orange juice, and pale malt. Finishes on bitter pine, lemon rind, and orange marmalade. Analyzing it almost seems like a crime. It's just a really good basic citrusy-piney soft double.

Feel is resinous, juicy, acidic, creamy, and even sticky. Coats the mouth with cream and resins. Alcohol heat is moderate, but about perfect for an 8% DIPA.

Overall, was blown away at the brewery by this one, and is definitely better on tap, but this can is still pretty good. A very well-done beer by Lupulin. My 2nd favorite IPA from them aside from Strictly Illegal.

$5.99 / can (got shanked) @ Hy-Vee
