Matanuska Brewing

very good hazy here and among the best beers ive had from these guys, really fruity and vibrant, fresh and peppy, with some body and some grain heft beefing it up, which makes it nice for colder weather, and even though this has somewhat of a tropical profile, i think its hearty enough for winter too. a little more modern than i am used to from matanuska, this has a pretty dense cloudiness to it, an orange tint and a low glow with an average white head on it from the tap, not poorly refined but not dead sexy or anything either. the nose is peachy to me, slightly sweet which the hops ride, subtle white grape, dried mango and apricot, and sweet orange, very low bitterness apparent and its not green or over hopped despite its boldness. the flavor is fuzzy ripe peach, pineapple, and orange candy, there could be mosaic in this, maybe el dorado, id love to know, but its fresh and well dosed, a little slick in feel with some fuller body, this sticks to my ribs a bit, but i like its density because it works to sort of extend the hops on the palate. this has a faint sharpness as it warms, but its fruity the whole way and very low bitterness. i liked this one a lot, even if it could be dialed in just a bit more on the overall quality side. one of the better hoppy beers i had while i was in alaska, and a great food beer too.
