Galaxy IPA
Whistle Punk Brewing Company

i guess they use a little bit of citra in the dry hop here too, but this is a nice expression of galaxy hops, the only one of the several hoppy beers of theirs i tried while i was in, and a mighty drinkable one for something as washed out looking and cloudy as this, although it does give rise to a tall white airy head and has plenty of carbonation, just doesnt look as refined as it drinks, a pleasant surprise, but still very much on trend as the style goes right now. the galaxy hops have hints of lime leaf, lemongrass, lime zest, and ripe apricot, juicy but not forced, really appealing over a very minimal, wheaty, earthen grain profile. the flavor is the same, maybe a little less radiant but equally fresh to me, lemongrass and lime leaf, some fruity white wine essence, and the more familiar citra behind it, some amount of generic stone fruit and canned fruit cocktail, but all real pleasant. the body is light but not watery, very dry, and without any green bite or bitterness on the swallow. sort of delicate for what it is, and really the perfect kind of base beer to feature galaxy hops like this. i thought this was excellent overall, and i will look forward to drinking more of their hoppy stuff next time in! well done, very modern.
