Truck Chaser: Lemon Ice
Wild Leap Brew Co

Looks like this was canned 6/21/20, so dealing with a year old IPA with adjuncts, but it’s not bad. Cloudy, with a distinct lemon presence on the nose and tongue, tart and tangy. Medium bodied, good booze.

 

Poured murky bright yellow from the can, complete with a finger of white foam. Smelled of lemony hops, subtle lime and mango, with decent bitters. Tastes like a hoppy limoncello without the tartness. Honestly that is the best way to describe it, appreciate it not being overly sweet. Feel is bright, smooth, yet medium bodied. Great for summer

Quite a crisp, bracing, refreshing NE style IPA. Loved the lemon citrus. Best by 10/10/20 date printed on can. Pours a slightly darker yellow-orange color with some fluffy white head and spotty lingering lacing. Smells of crisp orange and lemon, grapefruit, a little melon, malt, vanilla and bread. Taste follows the nose, very crisp, perfect amount of lemon that wasn't overpowering. Smooth, slightly sticky, mild mouthfeel with great carbonation. Felt like a sessionable beer that was too easy to drink.

Thanks to Tavour for the brew. Pours a hazy yellow -orange color with a minimal head that disappears quickly. Aroma is citrus. Tastes of sweet citrus, lemon and spice. No hoppy bitterness. A good summer brew.

Loved this beer. Strong lemon smell and flavor but not overpowering. Picked up an aftertaste that was almost like the creamsicle Truck Chaser- liked that as well.

I rated the feel lower because it seems thinner than a typical IPA, but that makes it more drinkable IMO.

I’d definitely buy it again, but can’t find it locally any more. Here one day, gone the next...
