Swell
HOMES Brewery

16 FL OZ can
Served in a stemless, wine glass

This beer pours orange and is topped with an inch of tan head that leaves spotty lacing.

A little sweet, a little grapefruit, a little dank.

Sweet upfront. Dank with a grapefruit flavor

Fuller bodied with a smooth mouthfeel

On the sweeter side for me, but still good.

 

A - Pours a hazy orange with a two finger creamy white head. Tons of soapy lacing.

S - Aroma is tangerine, mango and passionfruit.

T - The taste is mango, pineapple, tangerine, passionfruit, grapefruit and a light resinous hop bite in the finish.

M - Medium/full body with medium carbonation. Creamy mouthfeel with a soft dry finish.

O - Killer. Bright and juicy. Super crushable.

Dank mango, orange, hard candy, overripe fruit, bitter hop edge, smooth, perfect carb as usual. Another great one.

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours opaquely hazy deep golden amber/light orange color with a 1 finger dense and rocky off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Dense foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and bready malt notes; with great strength.

Lingering notes of tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready, fairly sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 8%. Overall this is a fantastic NEDIPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV, with the mildly bitter/resinous/drying finish; great soft feel. Fantastic all Mosaic profile. Extremely juicy, vibrant, and fairly dank/earthy hops; with a perfectly balanced wheat/oat/malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example as expected.
