Double Splat!
Ingenious Brewing Company

RB transfer

 

 

 

 

Super hazy yellow-orange pour. Mild head.
Nose is grapefruit juice and hints of tropical/ juicy pineapple and a nice hint of dank.
Taste are those juicy fruit notes, with some orange and with a slightly sour but nicely bitter hop burst. Sweetness throughout. Underlying malt/ resin note is tasty!
Creamy and medium slick.
Well, for those reasons it’s very good!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I had this at the brewery from tap and got a vanilla “beer topper” on it - a beer dessert!

Pours a hazy orangish yellow and it seemed to have a good head before the topper was put on. Orange smell and taste. Flavors of tangerine and pineapple, vanilla there as well. Very hoppy. Not overly sweet and it has an acidic kick.

This was the first time I had a beer topper. Not something I would get all the time, but it was fun and made the beer look beautiful!

A: Pours an opaque, chunky yellow/orange color. A two finger white head forms with good retention. Light lace is left behind.
S: The nose is mostly mosaic hops. Berries, tropical fruits, generic "juiciness" which is all up front. Not bad at all, but just finishes to quickly with everything showing itself all at once. While enjoyable for what it is, that is a major issue I have with the style.
T: Like the nose, everything is up front. Mosaic hops of berries, nondescript tropical fruits, and generic juiciness. I can't put my finger on it, but kind of like a rotting fruit flesh as well as an odd sweetness. All up front at once, with an annoying nothingness lingering.
M/O: This drops off here. Kind of a moderate body, low carbonation, muddled and chalky. Though surprisingly, actually not bad to drink. I can't say I would have multiple pints, but not a complete astringent mess.

This does little to persuade me on the NEIPA style, though it is not a complete waist. For a minute the mosaic hop character is nice, but fades to the muddled nothingness that I usually get with the style. I might be getting use to this style though, as it wasn't so completely off putting. Just nothing I will particularly be looking for again. Though, can I plead to the breweries making these...please make something with a nice finish. Finishing clean with body/good carbonation, and a bit of bitterness is not bad.

Poured from tap to sniffer good 1 finger cream colored head, good retention and lacing. Pale hazy yellow in the glass. Smells of pineapple, citrus and other tropicals. Taste is sweet malt, orange, ripe pineapple. Mild hop astringency, very low bitterness. Real creamy mouthfeel.

 

Pours a cloudy yellow color with a thin foamy head. Retention is very mild. Lacing is decent. Aroma is awesome. Fresh citrus. Orange and pineapple with mild piney resin. Very juicy taste with good amount of bitterness and decent hop burn. Best NEIPA I have had in a while. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
