16 fl oz. can, no date on the can, but these are freshy mcfresh. A new can iteration of this beer from Miskatonic, apparently introduced in 2018. Marketed here as a "Hazy IPA" so let's see what we've got.
Poured to clear unbranded stemware.
Can super full; beer everywhere upon opening.
Body is slightly hazed orange juice color, not opaque like some Hazies. Over two fingers of frothy white head that leaves excellent strands of lacing. Head is slightly dense and sudsy, appears well carbonated. Looks good per the style.
Aromas of big citrus fruits, coupled with a decent pale bready malt backbone, to my surprise, giving it some balance in the nose.
Taste doesn't really have any of that maltiness however, pure citrus juice.. tangerine, oranges, grapefruit, mango, papaya, zest. Flavorful and to style.
Feel is smooth, crisp, creamy. Medium-bodied, excellent carb, super easy drinking stuff for the moderate 7.10% abv.
Overall, a decent Hazy from Miskatonic that hits all the right marks.
Miskatonic Brewing Mountain King -----4/5.

12oz can, no apparent freshness date. "Hazy Nordic IPA". Thanks to Anthony for giving me a can to try! A persistent frothy white head caps a hazy yellow ale. Tropical fruit aroma of passion fruit, guava, citrus, and grassy green hops. Nice tropical fruit flavors: guava, passion fruit, melon, grapefruit, lemon-lime, papaya, apple, grass, and a bit of juniper berry presumably from the yeast. Fuller body, tart and citric, ample carbonation, finish is modestly bitter, tart, and very dry. One of the better beers I've tried from this brewery - worth a try.
