Matchless Brewing

Poured from a 16 ounce can dated 6-23-25 into an IPA glass at 55 degrees.

Look- Pale gold, very hazy, white frothy head, above average head retention, slightly above average lacing.

Smell- Tangerine, pineapple, papaya, medium strength of scent.

Taste- Tangerine, pineapple, pith, between medium and high strength of flavor.

Feel- Between medium and full body, average carbonation, very slight astringency, mildly bitter, soft, mildly mouth warming, mildly dry finish.

Overall- Appearance was pale gold and very hazy. Bouquet was a pleasant mix of tropical scents. Flavor was less diverse than the nose, but had good intensity. Mouthfeel was close to full body and soft with very slight astringency. Overall this was average for the style and provided a decent drinking experience.

From a single tallboy into a shaker. This is good for a neipa, but just that and nothing more. Kind of round and muddled tropical (overripe pineapple) and melon hops, modest carbonation, moderate to heavy mouthful, neither pillowy soft nor lively and zippy...kind of in between.

Hazy yellow with foam streaking down the sides of the tulip. Flavors of orange and grain with an interesting blueberry finish. The mix of hops is not overly assertive but adds some dried pineapple and a hint of apricot. Mouthfeel is rather slushy but the moderate acidity keeps it farily drinkable. This is another better than tolerable hazy brew from Matchless. Purchased at Metropolitan Market in Mercer Island. Dated 6/5/2023.
