INKredibly Juicy
Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant

 

 

Hazy orange peachy color with a thin head.
Aroma with predominant notes of pineapple juice and hints of mango and oranges.
Likewise, flavor with notes of pineapple juice, tangerines, green resin, wheat and peaches. Dry aftertaste with a medium bitterness. But it feels bitter than its 4 IBUs announced.
Medium body with appropriate carbonation.
Tropical and citrusy NEIPA with bold pineapple and tangerine juice notes. But after some time, guava and peaches started to show up making it more complex and fun.

Pours a hazy golden color with a nice head and lacing
Aroma has tropical and citrus hints
Taste has tropical and citrus flavor
A medium bodied well carbonated beer
A good NEIPA

On tap at the ball park.

A - Pours an opaque dark pineapple gold color with dense cream colored lacing.

S - Strong pineapple and pithy citrus aroma with grapefruit and tangerine.

T - Overall flavor is pithy with citrus rind underlying spiciness. Pineapple, pineapple rind, some sweet grapefruit, and tangerine orange. Pineapple definitely trumps the other flavors. Ends on the sweeter side with some cloying residue.

M - Pillowy soft and chewy and semi-dry on the palate.

O - Decent, not memorable. Glad to have tried it.

A thanks to the incredible woodychandler for this beer. Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a cloudy golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is strong of pineapples. Taste is pineapple, grapefruit, light oranges, mild bitterness. Feels medium/full bodied in the mouth and overall is an enjoyable beer.

Notes via stream of consciousness: So what's up with the name on this beer? "Inkredibly"? I see that there's a squid on the label but WTF, what does ink have to do with it? We've gotten to the point where there's no creativity in beer names anymore and falling back on stupidity has become the norm. It's poured a cloudy golden orange with plenty of large bits of particulate in suspension. I'm guessing that they're pieces of pineapple because that's what they look like. Not surprisingly it smells like pineapple in beer. There's a little bit of malt to it and some orange, grapefruit, and citrus pith as well but it's mostly pineapple. Once again, not surprisingly, it tastes like pineapple. It has the whole vegetal part of the pineapple as well which is kind of distracting. Personally I would have just used pineapple juice but whatever. Again there are notes of orange, grapefruit, papaya, and passionfruit but it's mostly pineapple. A firm bitterness balances it and the pineapple adds a bit of acidity bringing it to a mainly dry conclusion with some bitterness, pine, and earthy & vegetal notes lingering. In the mouth it's medium bodied and crisp. The head did not hold up too well nor did it leave much behind in the way of lacing. It might seem odd to say this about a "pineapple-infused" beer but I think it's got too much pineapple to it - at least whole pineapple as it lends that unwanted vegetal character. On the up side it is nicely balanced.
