Eternal Shredder is the imperial version of Master Shredder. We are extremely please with how this came out. Jam packed with tangerine, grapefruit, fresh bright orange peel. Subtle dankness. Juicy as all get out!

Appearance: Pours a hazy golden color with a two finger head; decent retention with squiggles of lace
Smell: Apricot, mango and tangerine pith tones; there is a surprising degree of bitterness in the aromatics
Taste: Fruit forward, with the apricot and mango flavors, but the pithy tangerine emerges quickly along with an herbaceous element that dominates the finish
Mouthfeel: Medium to full body with moderate carbonation; considerable hop burn
Overall: I have had a lot of good IPAs from The Veil but this one is a disappointment

04/28/25. Poured into a Samuel Adams, perfect pint.
A: Hazy gold with two finger, frothy white head with good retention and solid bands of lacing.
S: Dominant hop notes include apricot, mango, and red grapefruit with some pineapple . Esters are moderate and fruity.
T: Flavor is a little rough with some polyphenols that amp up the potency of the bitterness. Fruity hop notes include mango, pineapple, and grapefruit citrus. The same dank herbal note hangs in the finish. Bitterness is moderate plus. Esther’s are low to moderate and fruity.
M: Mouthfeel is a bit on the rough side with a lot of polyphenol gritty character in a medium bodied beer.
O: I am going to let my other cans of Eternal Shredder sit and mellow a bit as this one is rough around the edges at this point 3 weeks from canning.

1 US pint can, from Left Field Beer, England. ABV is 8.5%. Hazy yellow colour, large to moderate white head. Aroma of yellow stonefruits. Rich mouthfeel. Pleasant flavour of yellow stone fruits, hints of citrus and tropical fruits, pine needles and resin in the moderately bitter finish.

Look: Pale orange with soft foam. Like a mimosa.
Smell: Lots of citrus and grass.
Taste: Sweet and tangy. Tones of orange, vanilla, and lemon zest.
Feel: Soft mouthfeel. Still has some dryness though, like citrus oil.
Overall: A really nice NE IPA. All the citrus and mouthfeel you would expect. Perfect for all occasions.

Great fluffy white head and even better lacing.
A citrusy aroma of orange blossom with a bit of spice.
But the beer begins to fall away with the taste. Too much orange combined with the resiny hops turns the flavor into something good but beginning to remind me of orange juice turned bad.
Smooth and creamy but not coating.
A great that is still a bit over rated.
