Poured into a Trillium glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, guava, peach, nectarine), pretty nice diesel like. The taste is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, guava, peach, nectarine), pretty nice diesel like. Medium Body, ABV is hidden very nicely, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty beer. Orange Julius! MilkShake! Addictive!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Appearance: Arrives a cloudy goldenstraw with a two finger head; quality lacing

Smell: Papaya, peach and blueberry tones

Taste: Papaya and peach forward with a white wine grape flavor developing; grapefruit pith bitterness, in the middle, with a blend of the sweeter and bitter elements in the finish

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: Interesting contrast between the Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin hop profiles though it is as much of a battle as it is a dance

 

 

No brew date, just a batch number on label.
This pours a bright, pale and hazy lemon yellow sporting a tall, stark white head of creamy, craggy foam that left sheets of pocked lace behind as it slumped.
Aromas of grapefruit and lemon meringue pie, hints of mashed grains add some depth to the pungent citrus blast.
More "beery" malt smells push through on a swirl in contrast to all that Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin dry hopping.
The flavor is less balanced than the nose as citrus character dominates to the exclusion of any malt heft or complexity.
Sharp, tongue biting alpha acids scald my mouth. Not over hopped - under malted and/or over attenuated.
The "creamy softness" of unfiltered starches do not add mouthfeel and offers no depth or body to offset the one note citrus medley.
Dry, abrupt finish with a harsh, bitter alcohol and grapefruit aftertaste.
This lacks most of what I look for in an IPA.

 

My first Outer Range beer. This one was loaded with white grape and grapefruit. It was pretty dank. The thing that stood out was the creaminess. Great mouthfeel.
