A big shout out to Thankin_Hank for this can!

A - Opaque dark orange peach color with thin, dense lacing.

S - Peach, pineapple, and mango aroma.

T - Spicy peach rind, citrus, mango, pineapple, and finishes balanced with nice lingering peppery spice and citrus.

M - Thick body with carbonated pricklies giving way to a soft borderline frothy finish.

O - This is a really nice T-IPA that's worth checking out. The ABV is dangerously well hidden.

 

 

16oz can from Tavour. Orange pour, fine white head, thin ring. Dank citrusy aroma, floral notes. Taste lands with a big, funky, boozy blast of weedy dank. Tropical flavors, melon, mango, one thick melange. Plenty of alcohol heat.

 

A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy and a bit pale yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a thin layer of bubbles covering the surface and a narrow collar around the edge.
S: Light aromas of coconut, stone fruit and cream are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell, except that the coconut flavors are stronger.
M: It feels medium-bodied and a bit juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I found this beer to be quite easy to drink considering its strength.

Serving type: can

Poured from a 16 ounce can into a snifter.

Look- Hazy, dull medium gold, sudsy white head, average head retention, above average lacing.

Smell- Mango, melon, tangerine.

Taste- Tangerine, tart, ripe melon, very pithy, slightly sweet/boozy finish.

Feel- Between medium and full body, astringent, low bitterness, slightly below average carbonation, mildly creamy.

Overall- Overly pithy and astringent for my palate.

 

Ok - I really don’t want to say much about this one, except that it is spot on like a granny calling bingo. 10.5% like no one’s business. This one is more smooth than Robert Mitchum with a heater to your gut.

Yeah - so here I am drinking it, and I feel more vindicated than Spencer Tracy at the end of “Fury.”

Be well.

 

Pours a pineapple, orange juicy color with no head. Has a funky orange fruity aroma. Taste is orange, pineapple, grapefruit juicy and delicious. Mouthfeel is even more juicy than beer like. Not too sweet and no bitterness. Another odd but excellent IPA (a triple) made locally. After a Boss Tweed I liked so well, this is almost as good, Overall, I'd say I better get some more. Really good beer. These cans are undated. Update: After the second one I get some tartness on the palate. It's lip smacking good.
