16 oz. Can

Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pineapple, guava, mango), pretty nice diesel like. The taste is pretty nice hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pineapple, guava, mango), pretty nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV hidden very nicely, with a nice little dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty nice brew. Orange Julius! Addictive! MilkShake! Nice to see it around here.

 

Looks more like a hazy IPA to me with a nice 1/4 inch of froth. Chock full of fruity hops gleaming with mango, papaya and some pineapple zest. Very clean and crisp IPA no lingering bitterness or ethanol burn even though I have no idea of the age. Mouthfeel is sublime easy to crush. Very surprised they put this in the mix a six section at just 2 bucks a pop I should have looked for more!

Notes via stream of consciousness: Based on the appearance and aroma I'm going to guess that this is a New England style IPA although that's not noted on the label. It's a cloudy yellow-gold beneath a finger's width of white foam. The aroma is like candied orange slices with a little bit of an otherwise tropical fruit background and just a hint of wood and pine. The flavor follows along those line but now I'm finding some mango. pineapple, berries, sweet apple, and guava in the mix as well. It's a little bit earthy, woody, and piney in the finish along with some "hop burn", a spritz of drying alcohol, and a stiff bitterness. It's somewhat unique to be honest. It works in the "juicy" vein but it doesn't go directly there (like a glass of orange juice), it's more candyish. In the mouth it's medium-light in body and gently crisp. The head retention was pretty good and there's some nice lacing left behind. It's a really well done NEIPA that's slightly different. I'm highly recommending this one, and I'll go for more of it myself. It'll be perfect for the upcoming warm weather.

$20 4 pack. GFY

Can stamped with some jibberish "PASD2-A1."
This was was poured into a tulip.
The appearance had a milky yellow opaque color with a foamy white head settling down leaving some concave lace sprinkling the sides of the glass.
The aroma had some pineapple and mango notes with white grapes and some grapefruit pith. Light pencil shavings underneath.
The flavor leaned towards the semi-sweet white grape to pineapple/mango blend. Some dry citrus peel closes it off just before a dry white grape aftertaste with some hop oils occur.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with some sessionability about it. However, enough dryness does occur that this ends up becoming more of a sipper as it warms. Hop oily pushing some stickiness further back and causing this beer to be well balanced. Finishes somewhat sticky with some pineapple and white grapes.
Overall, pretty good New England styled IPA I think I could come back to.

 

 

The aroma is that hoppy tropical fruit smell, makes my mouth water with just a whiff. The taste is deep and complex, lots of tropical fruit notes, pineapple, grapefruit, mandarin orange, even a bit of stone fruit ion there. Finishes with a touch of bitter citrus pith and a note of pine. Very well balanced, very easy to drink with a creamy mouthfeel and that oily resin coating left behind, LOTS of hops in here. I will buy more when I see it!

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 8/2019. Pours opaquely hazy deep golden amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy of white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice dense spotty foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew, watermelon, red apple, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew, watermelon, red apple, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew, watermelon, red apple, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while, Excellent complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, and fairly sticky/resinous/rindy mouthfeel that is great. Mild increasing warmth of 8% after the finish. Overall this is an excellent NEDIPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the modestly bitter/resinous/drying finish. Nicely soft and not aggressive. Great Citra, El Dorado & Simcoe profile. Very vibrant, juicy, dank, and earthy hops; with a nice sized wheat/oat/malt backbone. Mild residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. A very enjoyable offering, and well made style example. No complaints.

 

 

From the bottom rim of the can: "PASD1-AI"

Appearance: The body is an opaque pale straw yellow. It has a large sudsy and fluffy white head with active bubble popping and formation.

Aroma: It has a nice aroma of mango and grapefruit peel. The beer can be smelled at a distance. There is also a light bit of pine that shows up as it sits for a bit.

Taste: It has a nice pineapple skin and grapefruit pith flavor with a bit of powdered sugar and apricot taste. A light bit of alcohol is in there but mostly it tastes like apricots doused in sugar.

Mouthfeel: It is light and smooth with just a small bitter bite that keeps things interesting. It is nicely balanced between the texture of the beer and the bitterness.

Overall: The beer is essentially an Imperial version of a New England IPA. It is a very flavorful and aromatic beer that is enjoyable to drink. This is a real winner from Public Access Liquids. It has a nice fruit character and it delivers some additional qualities like fruit skin and pith character which makes it taste wonderful; very good hops and very well used. I really enjoyed it and I would both drink it again and recommend it.
