    Bell's -- Hopsolution



    3.96/5 rDev -3.6%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

    Clear, copper colored body; excellent carbonation; dense, creamy head. Nice aroma with some pine-y punch and earthy caramel notes. The taste also exudes a rich caramel flavor with some biting hop bitterness; earthy. Medium body with a nice tickle on the palate; mostly dry feel throughout.

    A very balanced and drinkable double IPA.

    Just finished off a 5 mile run in the late afternoon SE GA heat. I am drenched ... and more than ready for a beer.

    Hope everyone had a good Thursday, just one more to go.

    Delicious gose. Fantastic fluffy head retention/foamy lacing. Aromas and flavors of juicy, fairly tart/tangy watermelon, cucumber, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, peach, pear, melon, red/green apple, white grape/wine, hay, straw, and grass; with moderate wheat, cracker, white bread, light bisciut/dough malts; with light peppercorn, lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. A bit muted aromas. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness, fruit tang, and light spiciness on the finish. Medium-plus carbonation, light-medium body, and fairly crisp/clean finishing. Balanced bready/grainy wheat, lactic acid, fruit tang, and light salinity in the mouthfeel. Light-moderate increasing acidic/tangy dryness, zero puckering. Very flavorful/refreshing, not overly lactic/salty, not watery for 4.5%. Spot on style. Great balance between authentic juicy watermelons, and Lacto complexity; with a nice pale/wheat malt backbone for the ABV. Mild residual sweetness with crisp dryness. Glad I got the pack. 3.91

    I really like this beer, this one canned on 4/17 so it's pretty fresh. Just a really tasty, old school IPA without none of this mango, citrus, hazy, juicy bullshit. Beer that tastes like beer.

    Tropical Bliss is hazier than Hazy Bliss. Taste very much alike also. This is just a tad softer. I prefer Tropical.

    Let me tell you, being brewed with Madame Jeanette Habanero peppers, this is not called Hot & Spicy for nothing, and I'm loving it! While the chili heat is intense, it doesn't feel one-dimensional or overbearing, being backed up by some very nice roasted malt and coffee/espresso notes and hints of chocolate and licorice that really balance this out nicely.
