Taking a different approach than our previous @phantasm.nz hoppy beers, we lightened this one up and slightly lowered our dry hopping rates in an effort to let the Phantasm shine a bit more. A touch of Saaz in the whirlpool for it's surprising thiol potential blended with Galaxy and Phantasm for that southern hemisphere one-two punch, bringing huge navel orange notes with a little sweet berry. Despite lower dry hop additions, we're still getting that big orange citrus note throughout with a little pineapple fruit cocktail in this one from our selected Citra lot accented by the Galaxy. You know how you can smell a clementine from across the room the minute it's peeled? It's like that.

Here's another beer I had back in 2023 that I am now adding to this Next Glass owned database. 388 ratings at Next Glass's bigger database. You're not only getting it added here, but you'll have the first review and rating here provided. 388-1 baby. We're back. Kind of. Normally this might come in at a 3.5 appearance wise, but given the powder addition and the almost full inch of well done head, we're sticking it here.

Pours a lightly cloudy dark gold, 3/4" white head into a Marquette 100th anniversary pint glass. Interesting aroma, you start with your normal Citra and Galaxy hops, ok, moderate amount of orange and pineapple going for it. But this Saaz hop and Phantasm grape must or whatever it is, it provides another, different level and approach diving up the other hops.

The taste gives a new coat/spin to the usual Citra/Galaxy hop combo. This is the equivalent of adding tranq to your fentanyl, just makes it pop a bit more, longer lasting, from further away. Body/barley is just enough to be there. I liked it.
