Keeping an eye toward creative possibilities with Peacharine, the aroma is a stunning display of hop saturation. Juicy peach, ripe stone fruit, and zesty citrus notes are complemented by overripe pineapple, mango nectar, and grapefruit. Supremely soft and palate-coating with low bitterness, Encoded holds no secrets to blissful drinkability.

Huge nose hits as soon as you pop the can (but more on that in a moment)... Standard pour yields a fingers worth of uniform off white colored froth... Solid retention... Color is a slightly hazed slightly pale honey gold... Exquisite fruit forward nose... Sweet orange, ripe peaches and a touch of pineapple... A malty cracker and biscuit base lingers a bit beneath the surface... The flavor profile shifts slightly... The hops take on an earthier and grassier character, but the fruit sweetness is still there... Feel is sleek and medium bodied with just a touch of carbonation... Bery nice highly enjoyable beer... Wish this was available with regularity in my parts...

Pours a hazy orange with a 1F head and a lot of lacing.

Smells of slightly dank grassy and resinous hops with citrus and sweet fruit.

Tastes of lightly tart grapefruit, tangy wheat, mango and lemon with a mildly bitter finish.

Medium light body with light carbonation. Smooth, dry mouthfeel.

This very tasty brew is complex, mild mannered and has balanced sweet/tart-sour bits. Well done!
