Mt Crushmore
Moonraker Brewing Co.

On tap at Tin Bucket the other day.

The beer pours a light, slightly hazy, copper amber color with great head retention and considerable lacing. On the nose I pick up considerable mango and apricot, with a hint of underlying citrus as well. The flavor profile replicates the nose pretty closely, though at least there's a hint of bitterness in the finish to help counter all the sweet tropical fruit in this beer. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, but with the beer certainly delivering plenty of flavor for such a (relatively) low abv. IPA. Alcohol is very well integrated into the flavor profile, and so drinkability is pretty decent.

This beer was highly recommended by a friend, but I wasn't quite as enamored with this beer as he was. Still a good solid, hazy IPA, but I'm not sure it really stands out all that much from "the rest of the pack."

A hazy light orange with a white head with good retention and lacing, this looks good. The nose is a super fruity juice bomb with passionfruit, peach, nectarines and some citrus. The palate opens bright and vibrant, juicy, clean and fruity. Peach, mango, passionfruit and fresh squeezed OJ are present. With a lovely mouthfeel, this beer is juicy and clean. Carbonation is a little high, but all told, this is an excellent beer.
