Swank
Civil Society Brewing

On tap at the brewery. Hazy pale orange. Smells of citrus, lime, grapefruit, garlic, and alcohol. Intense, but inviting. Tastes of orange, a little tropical fruit, lime and woodsy hop flavors that make me think El Dorado, but I know it's the Simcoe lupulin. And finally there is a tongue-numbing alcohol flavor. Not that sweet, but still very big. Alcohol burn in the back. All told, it's way too big, but tasty enough to redeem itself.

 

Hazy orange juice colored brew with a quickly dispersing head that leaves random ribbons of lacing. Pungent, dank aroma with some underlying malt sweetness, mango and citrus. Tastes sweet with the peppery mango and orange with an aggressive bitter finish. There is some alcohol heat at the end. Pretty good beer.

10 oz pour on draft into snifter glass.

A: murky muddy orange vaguely tan body. Very little head Soapy white film.

S: Apricot, Orange, and a good deal of yeast. Smells like pineapple and flour mixed.

T: very juicy, lots of papaya, mango, with almost a doughy quality almost like a super sweet fruity pastry. Maybe a little alcohol on the finish.

M: almost no carbonation medium bodied, yet a little watery.

O: This isn’t bad, if you are a huge fan of juice bomb IPAs you will most definitely enjoy this.
