Pulp Art Imperial
Brooklyn Brewery

 

This beer pours a hazy, apricot color with a significant white head. It has a distinct aroma of pineapple. The taste is bitter and hearty. The predominant flavor is apricot.

Good One!!! The lower octane "Pulp Art" brews were listed as NEIPAs. THis beer is not really an Imperial version of a New England Brew, It is quite hoppy with a lot of pine flavor and a little caramel malt. The pineapple that is listed on the can is hardly noticeable. Poured from a 12 oz. can into a pint glass, this beer features a hazy copper/light amber color and a big frothy white head with good retention. The lacing is frothy as well. A lighter version of this beer would be more of an AIPA than a NEIPA. The flavor was good, the bitterness level very good. Mouthfeel was crisp and moderately bitter. No hint of the 9% .abv. Very Enjoyable!!!

12 oz. can, looks like best by 11/30/23 which is fastly approaching.

A: Good look, deep golden orange, some chill haze, nice finger of frothy off-white head. Super craggly, good spotty lacing.
S: Caramel is beginning to creep forth. Herbal, earthy, twiggy, leafy.
T: Taste is actually super balanced. Good caramel malt balances nicely with clean earthy herbal hop presence. Has a sort of beginner's barleywine type flavor profile going on here.
F: Super smooth & clean. Hop bitterness is minimal at best, and the 9.0% abv is hardly noticeable. Dangerously drinkable, I would call this.

Overall, enjoyed much more than expected, especially since beers over 8% abv are typically not my jam

Brooklyn Brewery Pulp Art Imperial IPA -----4/5.

 

 

 

Poured from a 12oz can from a pack of randos into a Bee Hoppy glass, with its laser etching and all that other crap that alleges to enhance the taste and experience but is probably just $12 worth of gimmick.

It's okay.

 

 

I respect the hop/malt aggressiveness. Pretty hoppy with pine that fades. The adjectives on the can say “pineapple, hazy, powerful”. Don’t get much pineapple and not characteristic of a hazy.

Nothing special about this one. I assumed it would be somewhat of a Haze, being it's mentioned on the can but it's an average Imperial. Not bad for the price though, I paid $10.99 for a 6pk.
