Juicy Sunrise IPA
Widmer Brothers Brewing Company

Don't remember the label so probably had on one of my trips to the brewery many years ago.

 

Pours a pale gold color with a creamy white head. Smells like a fruity juicy sunrise. Taste is more balanced than you'd think. Malt presence up front with a citrus finish.

 

12oz can poured into a pint nonic.

A: Very plain can art, but pours deliciously sunset golden and hazy with an absolutely enormous off white head that laces well.

S: Fairly juicy and tropical, generically; mildly earthy and bitter as well. Touch of pine as well.

T: Mildly resinous and bitter with notes of citrus peel, orange and grapefruit juice, generic tropical fruit, maybe some peach and mango.

MF: Creamy body. Light to medium mouthfeel. Mildly bitter.

O: Not a bad run-of-the-mill hazy from a macro brewer.

tasty new one here in their new ipa mixed pack, a little bit hazy but not heavy looking in the glass at all. a couple of inches of high white head on it hang around awhile too and leave some lace at each sip, pretty beer and well refined looking for a hazy, quite bright. aroma is very citrus forward, fresh oranges, rind included, with maybe a hint of lemongrass or lime in here too, but not fruity in a tropical sense, clean citrus to me, really nice. there is very little bitterness to the flavor here, hoppy as it is, and the beer is juicy as the name suggests, hops here from start to finish, not overly dynamic, but definitely fresh and nicely dosed. more orange, a little lemon bite too maybe, and just a hint of pale wheat on the grain side, fluffy feeling but a light beer overall that seems just right for the newly arrived summer weather here in idaho. higher carbonation than the other beers in the pack is also nice in a hazy, and overall i was pleased with this. all of the beers in this mixed pack are quite good. this is definitely the most modern, which is not what i know widmer to be about, but they got it right here. i like this more and more every time i drink it.

19.2 oz can purchased from Plaid Pantry in West Salem.

Cloudy/hazy apricot/orange coloured body with a nice sized thick and creamy off white head.
Aromas mainly citrus, ..orange, tangerine skin, some lemon rind.
Taste much as the aroma..except maybe a bit of peach skin with the citrus. Getting a welcome bit of minty fresh hop thing in the end.
Very nice mouth feel on this one..well carbonated but moves soft over the tongue and finishes well.
I liked this one..not a "trad" hazy more a hybrid NE/PNW hazy
