Employee of the Month (Leroy)
Kettlehead Brewing Company

Hello, Leroy! Congrats on Employee of the Month. I can tell by the bask of your peachy orange glow that you take your profession seriously. Two fingers of linen white head give off myriad lace patterns with each sip of enjoyment. Aromas of blueberry, gooseberry, marijuana resin, stone fruit, and tangerine. A touch of biscuity malt lingers in the background adding just the right complexity to the nose. Taste gives way to additional suggestions of apricot, peach, and tangerine, as well as a nice give and take between the dank/tropical flavors that really make the beer shine. The feel is luxurious, full-bodied, and tongue-smacking. Nice work, Kettlehead.

Kettlehead Leroy the 2nd of this rotating series. Poured into a 13 oz Snulip glass canned on 4/14/20. Pours a hazy orange with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves thick streaks of lace as it slowly settles. 4.5

Smell cantaloupe, pineapple, tangerine, coconut, papaya, and apricot really pleasant. 4.5

Taste follows melon, pineapple, tangerine, papaya, upfront with some hints of coconut and a healthy dose of apricot in bold, but balanced finish. 4.5

Mouthfeel is rather big, sticky not dry, soft gentle carbonation that lingers on the palate, and at 7% drinks a bigger but goes down very easy. 4.75

Overall this is another very nice NEIPA from these guys, really tasty and well crafted. 4.5
