Appearance: Ppursa a cloudy goldenstraw with a two finger head; excellent retention and lacing action

Smell: Jasmine tea aromatics blend with the melon and tropical fruit and berry tones

Taste: The jasmine tea makes its presence known from start to finish; up front, there is some melon, honey, papaya and berry tones, with passionfruit arriving, in the middle; low to moderate bitterness, after the swallow

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: The jasmine tea flavor is perfectly blended here; I was worried that it might not work in an NE IPA but this is not only interesting, it is delicious

Thanks, Slack, for the opportunity

The beer pours a really nice white and foamy head that dissipates fairly quickly. The beer itself is a gorgeous looking bright and pale yellow that looks really nice. It's a pretty good look objectively and what they sought to do.

The smell is pretty good. Even after all this while, it has a nice jasmine note that works well with a nice pine and slight melon note.

The taste is also good. It has a good mix of melon, Jasmine, orange, and a bit of bitter grassy pine note.

The feel is good. It's a bit thin with a good fizzying carbonation feel.

Overall, it's a pretty good beer and very interesting. It's totally worth getting it one if it still exists.

 

 

 

 

This is excellent. Don't much, if any, tea flavor thankfully. Nice white grape and ripe melon nose and flavor. Classic Aslin fruity profile minus the pine that often balances it out. Really great beer - pleasantly surprised considering I hate most tea infused beers.

 

 

 

 

Perfect NEIPA appearance and even has a nice 2 finger head. Aroma perfect. Guava & Mango. So the taste is very interesting. The tea must neutralize alot of the fruity hops you pick up in the aroma. Interesting blend of flavors, but comes out a little thin in flavor and mouthfeel as well. Overall its still a darn good IPA and nice variety.
