Cloak of Feathers
FrauGruber Brewing

A 440ml can, with a fresh before date of 2nd June 2022. Poured into a winebar glass.

Appearance: A hazy, slightly murky orange colour with a two finger white head that had decent retention and left some nice lacing.

Aroma: Mango, melon, grapefruit zest, citrus rind, resinous, pine.

Taste: As you’d expect from the aroma, fruity, mango, melon, grapefruit zest, citrus rind, floral, a bit soapy, resinous, piney.

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate to soft carbonation.

Overall: This was interesting and mostly fine, but it had this soapy, floral, zesty flavour mix that didn’t quite work for me.

Pours a hazy orange coloration with a medium, fluffy head. Smells of light biscuity malt and tropical/stone fruit/citrus hops, with notes of passion fruit, peach and grapefruit. Taste is a great balance of light biscuity malt and fruity, juicy, slightly bitter and resinous hops, with tropical, stone fruit and citrus notes of passion fruit, mango, peach and grapefruit, as well as hints of pine. Finishes with a medium bitterness and some passion fruit, peach and grapefruit lingering in the aftertaste. Soft mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

A rather nice, quite fruity New Endland IPA that also features a good, resinous bitterness for the style, along with those juicy tropical, sweet stone fruit and zesty citrus notes, as well as a great body and mouthfeel, while the ABV, which almost pushes this into Triple IPA territory, is hardly noticeable at all. Overall, this makes for an enjoyable example of the style with a good balance of sweet, juicy, and bitter, slightly resinous notes.

De Labirratorium. En copa Teku. Jugando a Fortnite con cuenta Asun y estudiando. Ipa de perfil verde, con mucha hierba y cierto toque jabonoso. Por momentos da la sensación de haberse les ido la mano algo con el amargor pero luego se te pasa
