You Got This Right?
Vitamin Sea Brewing

 

A - Pours a hazy golden orange with a one finger white head. Nice amount of sticky lacing.

S - Aroma is pineapple, passionfruit and earthy hops.

T - The taste is pineapple, cantaloupe, passionfruit, peach and earthy hops.

M - Medium body with medium carbonation. Creamy mouthfeel with a nice soft finish.

O - Nice & easy drinking NEIPA. The flavors are a little muted for me to rate it any higher.

What an IPA. Some IPAS are lacking in flavor, aroma, mouthfeel…not this offering!

A: The beer is very hazy pale whitish yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a thin collar around the edge, a small patch of bubbles on the surface and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of honeydew melon are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and also has additional hints of lychee and strawberry. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels a bit more than light-bodied, juicy and a bit smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: The use of oats in this beer provides for an incredible light body, which makes it especially easy to drink.

Serving type: can

Pours a hazy vibrant orange with thick, fluffy head.

Smell is juicy and slightly herbal, dank and sweet with notes of melon, peach and pineapple.

Taste is dank and herbal with nice juiciness and a hint of earthiness. Notes of mango, melon and peach, with soft bitterness.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and pillowy with good carbonation.

Overall, a really nice NE IPA, Vitamin Sea are impressing me.

Poured from the can into a Spiegelau IPA glass.

Bright white topped head, with a good turbid and murky body. Slightly dull lemon and brown, with a fairly good amount of carbonation surprisingly too. Big shampoo like lacing and a slow settling top.

Real good hop aromatics. Spicy green herbs and nearly smokey in character as well. Pungent earthy sweetness, a faint touch of fruit that seems peach like just a little too. Quite nice nose.

Palate delivers soothingly. Nice body, juiced up with some silky texture to match, filling a mid palate of tropical mango and guava like qualities. That peach seems to have eluded me, but I really don't care. Some of that spicy hop is evident on the finish, there's even a faint touch of playful carbonation ever so slightly on the finish too. Creamy, Spicy, Fruity, all in a simple package.

Good solid IPA, very enjoyable.
