Super Mega Dank 420 Kush Daddy Supreme
Double Nickel Brewing Company

 

This surprisingly good. I was expecting a grassy beer, but this is like an infusion of smoke and hops with an excellent aftertaste. Really excellent! This one rocks!

From the bottom edge of the can: "03/19/21-11:53:14"

Appearance: The beer is largely opaque with just a hint of shadow where there is the least amount of beer and glass. The color of the body is beige and pale yellow like a manilla envelope. The head is medium-sized, fluffy and rippled in texture, white, and long lasting. It has a nice formation of lacing.

Aroma: Cabbage and Brussels Sprouts come through at first, then some garlic and onion. A bit of alcohol comes through on the nose. It is very savory overall. If the nose lingers over the glass for an extended period there is some tangerine that comes through.

Taste: Up front there is a light grassy character mixed with a bit of grapefruit pith. In the middle there is a bit of oat character. Not much flavor going on in the beer overall.

Mouthfeel: The beer is drinkable but bland in flavor. The body is thick and feels a bit bloated.

Overall: The flavors and aromas feel very muted and the body feels overly textured. It greatly lacks both nuance and presence at the same time. If this is an experimental beer I might try a subsequent version to see how it has improved, but there's nothing here that makes me want to either drink it again or recommend it.

 

 

 

A very plush NEIPA, pours a fully-opaque light gold with a nice finger of fluffy head on top. Not over the top on any sort of "dank" notes I would expect from the name, but it's a solid beer in any case. A bit grassy, perhaps, but with honey, cantaloupe, avocado notes accented by some pineapple citrus once it hits the palate.
