Justice Ruth
Laughing Monk Brewing

This might have been my favorite beer at the 23rd annual dipa festival held last Saturday. Wild how what used to be the worst female justice ever became top 3 and you would yearn for a justice who just delivered their opinion instead of a doing as a (popular demographic for the times). Remember textualism?

Pours pretty golden color with ample clarity and 1/2" white head scaled up from taster to pint glass. Strata and Citra punching out all the citrus and stone fruits in the nose. Tangerine, nectarine and everything in between.

The taste keeps banging away bringing in even a little bit of that guava green weed train alongside the usual suspects of citrus and stone fruit. Diversify your hop portfolio as they say. Nice light body that is minimalistic and doesn't compromise the hops. Brisk, light, dry, crisp, hits those spots. Smallest hit of pine to it. Mostly rind though, not pine.

Boy Don Lemon really stepped in it. This gonna b gud. I think they did some cool artwork for this beer. I miss Brother Boogie.
