Mystic Flower Of Perpetual Slumber
Foreign Objects Beer Company

a: murky bright, yet matte burnt orange color. pours a 3 finger off-white frothy head

s: some sharp pineapple and orange zest hits the nose right away. big melon presence behind that, along with some raw hops and chalky notes. sweet tangerines, clementines, and candied apricots. big crackery backbone. a very faint touch of sugary sweetness

t: follows the nose pretty close. sharp pineapple and a hit of grapefruit bitterness upfront. mellow chalk along with an earthy herbal note. sweet peach juice and some light melon. slightly sweet crackery presence as well as a faint hop burn. guava, kiwi, and papaya behind that. a touch of orange zest at the end

m: for a 8.2% DIPA, this has a surprisingly light mouthfeel. i'd place it low medium mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. no real stickyness

o: pretty tasty DIPA. this falls like right in the middle of a west coast and east coast DIPA. tropical stonefruits dominate, but there is some nice bitterness for a DIPA. with the mouthfeel, it's very drinkable

 

 

Canned on date of 4/25/19. Enjoyed on July 2, 2019.
Pours a color of orange juice with the pulp. Tiny bubbles of carbonation. Back end pour yields sediment and floaties. Nose is Tropical fruit with a bit of dankness. Also citrus rind. Taste is hoppy, tropical fruits, varieties being guava, papaya, lychee, kiwi?, pineapple. Some dankness and herbal notes on the finish. Also notes of oranges, lemon, citrus rind. Mouthfeel is medium with a dry, sticky finish. It's a pretty good beer, but I would not buy again due to the price point - $18.99 for a 4 pack of 16 oz. cans.

 

Pale orange in color with a milky, murky, unfiltered appearance. Poured with a short, creamy white foam with medium low retention. Bready malt aromas with mellow tropical fruit, melon, light floral and boozy notes and. Medium bodied with medium light carbonation. Silky smooth feel with expanding boozy warmth. Flavors are similar to aromas. Malty flavors up front followed by melon, papaya, and mellow fruity flavors. Medium light bitterness through the middle. Over rioe citrus and tropical fruit flavors on the back end along with a boozy bite. Finished semi-dryly with boozy warmth, malty and mellow tropical fruit flavors and light bitterness. Mellow hop character and light booziness are balanced by the fruity and malty flavors. Hop aroma is a bit on the light side and the carbonation could've been a touch more aggressive. Overall, very tasty with a great feel.

L: 16 oz can poured into a rambler glass. Pours a hazy orange color with a finger and a half of head. As the head fades is leaves some nice lacing along the glass.
S: Passion fruit and mango notes are strong. Other tropical fruits as well.
T: Oranges, peach and some nice flavors from the galaxy hops. A little malt breadyness as well
F: Medium body and light carbonation
O: Overall a nice DIPA, especially if you like galaxy.

Taste follows apricot, mandarin orange, fresh melon, and just a little grapefruit bitterness. 4

Mouthfeel is big, a touch sticky but not dry, soft gentle carbonation, and at 8.2% extremely drinkable. 4.25

Overall this is another excellent beer from these guys. Always a tad expensive, but they put out a quality product. 4

The yellow cam pour holds a uniform, deep haze and sports a 1.5 cm foam cap. The aroma is bright with mango and strawberry. The flavor is full with kiwi, Cara Cara orange and a mint note. The hop bitterness is low to moderate. The body is smooth and the alcohol is well hidden.
