Shamanic Revelation
Conclave Brewing

 

 

 

 

 

Got a growler of this recently from a friend and had it tonight since I was off. Loved the other beers from Conclave that I've been fortunate enough to get my hands on and this lived up to it as it was well-balanced, tasty, and not terribly strong when ti came to the alcohol. It would be great if they canned, as I think that these guys would be much bigger in my home state if they were to package their products for the masses!

The pour to this was quite good, as the beer had a milky, goldenrod hue to it with plenty of head to boot. Tons of frothy lacing was left behind as I worked my way through this. Sweet citrus, apricot, honey, and a full range of melon flavors could be found in the aroma as the sweet melon and papaya took over completely in the taste. Plenty of pith, rind, and fiber in the taste as the beer had the essence of fruit in it. Juicy, dank, and sweet at the same time, this was an IPA that had it all without having anything stand out over anything else, which would be much easier said than done!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

pours a hazy turbid gold with a solid head, look is just beautiful

this smell is pure heaven, the smell is beautifully sweet and full of hops. slight honey here too

taste is sweet yet nicely bitter. full body and flavor for a 6.6% IPA, loving this. creamy mouth and easy to drink. this is one of the best Conclave beers i've had (and that's saying something)

overall this is amazing, certainly worth a try. great NE style IPA

From a fresh growler, pours a super hazy glowing orange. Three fingers of dense, bright white foam. Great head retention, lots of lacing. Beautiful looking beer.

Smell has mangoes, orange, pineapple, cantaloupe and citrus, with a touch of earthiness and pine. Taste is similar, with a nice combination of fruit and spicy notes. Feel is medium-minus. Overall a killer juicy IPA. I think I prefer it to Gravitational Waves myself, but they're both excellent.

 

 

Another great beer brewed at Conclave. This is an IPA with well balanced hops and a near perfect taste. The hop profile is more simcoe oriented. The taste more of a grapefruit flavor with a pine tailing adding to a dry finish. They have it right with this beer.
