Pours a dull cloudy gold with a decent head for a NEIPA. Hoppy aroma, slight. Fairly bitter for an IPA, kinda belies the look. Little bit of grassiness and citrus, but mostly dry and bitter. Medium mouthfeel. Would prefer a little more softness to balance this out.

Carbon Copy "Gully"
one pint can without production codes or freshness dating
$19/4-pack at the brewery on January 28, 2023
Notes via stream of consciousness: A cloudy golden body is capped by a finger's width of just slightly yellowed white foam. The aroma is fairly bright and offers notes of resins, spruce, grapefruit, orange, and apricot. The head seems to be holding up well and I've got some nice lacing left behind from the point the head originally rose to. The taste is rich with the usual oaty and wheaty malt base that's so common for NEIPAs. The hops follow the aroma with some added notes of "dankness", strawberry, white grape, and papaya. It's stiffly bitter with some clear "hop burn" that helps it to finish more on the dry side for an NEIPA done in this vein. It lingers with hop resins and weed. All in all it's pretty nicely balanced and rounded. In the mouth it's medium bodied but with a lot of extra proteins from the wheat and oats that make it feel fuller and smooth. I initially had this on tap at the brewery and I wasn't as thrilled with it as I am now but that's at least partially because the appearance just wasn't there, and I think that without foam you don't really get as much aroma. I'll chalk that up to a less than "beer clean" glass, and being distracted. I think to really get to know a beer you need to sit down with it at home (while no one's cooking or cleaning with chemicals) and really pay attention to it. What would've scored a 4 at the brewery is now a 4.14.
