Another variant of the IPA to consume. The last smoothie IPA I tried combined the wrong hop variety to make that beer less pleasing on the palate. So far every smoothie IPA variants I have consumed, I would never drink again. The beer is 44 degrees and served in a pint glass. The color of the beer is a reddish-pink hue. The beer's head is one-finger thick with poor retention. The head of the beer is white with a pink tint. No lacing was left on the glass. The beer is slightly cloudy. This looks like a berry smoothie, it is not thick.

The aromas in the beer are berries, lemon, oranges, tropical, a hint of herbal, a touch of floral, biscuit, and lightly toasted malts.

The flavors of the beer are abundant berries ( strawberries and raspberries), lemons, floral, bay leaves, cut grass, lightly toasted malts, oranges, pineapple, a hint of earthiness, and mangos.

The mouthfeel of the beer is acidic, carbonated, and crisp.

The body of the beer is medium-light, high carbonation, and a medium-plus finish.

I am amazed at this beer. The harmony and the balance in this beer are synchronized. The hop profile that accompanies this beer fits the beer style well. The beer is surprisingly enjoyable. Honestly, this beer is the first variant smoothie style I have enjoyed. Light crisp and full of flavor. This is a must-try beer.

 

 

 

Had on tap. Pours clear, reddish-purple in color with 1/4 inch head. Taste is berry and wet hops. Medium bodied and carbonation, slightly sweet. Makes for an interesting fruit forward ipa. Would get this again.
