473ml can - an NEPA, brewed with apricot and passionfruit.
This beer pours a sludgy, medium banana skin yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy off-white head, which leaves a bit of cannonball splash aftermath lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of dried apricots, a further muddled tropical fruitiness, bready and doughy caramel malt, a strong stoney flintiness, and some leafy, musty, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy cereal malt, mixed apricot/peach, juicy passionfruit, a steady damp minerality, and more earthy, leafy, and resinous piney hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-supporting frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a sweet time as this point in the game. It finishes off-dry, the blended frooty esters exhibiting the most lingering gusto.
Overall - this is definitely a bang-on version of the base style, with the adjuncts enhancing things, flavour-wise. It's not over the top, as it comes off as rather balanced, and dare I say, crushable, given the lack of any hint of the extra point of ABV. Another winner, Patrick!
