Goulden Oats is purty. It's brightly polished 24kt gold body shimmers when backlit. The clarity is top notch, the only hindrance to clarity being the cold's effect on the glass. A bulbous head of two fingers forms easily on the pour. That foam is pillowy and perfectly white. It eventually recedes to a thick crown that leaves sheet lacing down the glass with chunky drink lines on top of the sheet lacing. Doesn't get a whole lot better looking.
The nose? I can get behind the nose. A solid dose of biscuit and doughy pale maltiness make for a well done base. The hop profile is that of your old school West Coasters. A softly sweet orange marmalade kicks it off. Grapefruit pith and orange peel make up the middle and explode with each swirl of the glass. Mild pine brings up the rear and that combines with a clean, peppery booziness, these two compliment each other beautifully. It's nice.
That previously mentioned malt profile, dough and biscuit, lay down the base. Handfuls of citrus, grapefruit and orange mostly, in all their forms make up the hop profile. Orange marmalade upfront brings a touch of sweetness before it's washed aside by grapefruit and orange peel. The backend is grapefruit flesh and slightly bitter orange oils before the complimentary pine kicks in softly. The peppery alcoholic bite, yet again, compliments the overall profile. This is well made.
Oatmeal IPA. What's that? It's an IPA with velvety, plush, decadent body. That body has a full roundness off the bat with the bubbles being enough to delete any slickness and scrub away any residual sugar possibly present. The bittering is big with this beer. Those 90 IBUs show and they grow. Each drink brings an assertive bitterness that seems beefier with the saliva inducing dryness. This beer is immensely drinkable even though the IBUs destroy your tastebuds over time.
I am hugely impressed with this beer from a brewery I had never heard of until 20 minutes before walking in the door. It's West Coast and it's delicious while the oats add good body. This beer is bitter and bold with your more traditional grapefruit and orange hop forwardness, a big, badass bitterness, and sky high drinkability. Very well done over there at Junk Ditch.
