    Untitled Art / Full Pint - Cherry Cobbler Double Milkshake IPA. This was awesome. Opaquely hazy, fluffy head retention/spotty foamy lacing. Aromas and flavors of big lightly tart/tangy red cherries, fruit skin/pits, mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/zest, cinnamon, and light peppercorn/pine hops; moderate vanilla, cream, graham cracker, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toasted malts; and herbal, floral, grassy hop earthiness. Light pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness; and fruit tang/tartness on the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full body. Very creamy/silky/bready/grainy malts/lactose; some sticky hops, fruit acid/tang/tannins; light resins/rinds in the mouthfeel. Lightly increasing lingering bitter/tart/tangy dryness; no cloying/astringency. Dangerously smooth/soft, mild increasing warmth of 9%. Wow, really spot on for an experimental NEIPA. Feels like Citra/Mosaic. Super juicy hops/fruit, with light dank/earthy notes; with a perfectly balanced lactose, and wheat/oat/malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. Tastes just like the dessert all the way through. 4.1

    Little bit of an old school DIPA. Herbal dank. Lemon. Grassy. Good.

    Ha! If you’ve followed the thread: Bell’s :wink:

    Wouldn’t have said that a couple months back and bringing brews from anywhere would obviously be optional. I’ll look forward to a possible meet-up, regardless.

    Home and debating if the beer’s name is apropos (Gute Nacht, since I put the back of the can to the camera line an idiot):

    2.14/5 rDev 0%
    look: 3.25 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 1.5 | feel: 1.5 | overall: 1.75

    Somewhat murky, honey colored body; thin, wispy head. Malty aroma with a strong tequila component. Heavy, heavy tequila taste; cloyingly sweet; a bit a caramel. Heavy body; sugary and oily.

    There is no subtlety with this beer. I believe there was an omen when opening the bottle produced a huge gusher of boozy, sticky foam. After cleanup, the beer's true character gets revealed when going through the rating ritual. Overall, this beer is way too heavy and sweet and bludgeons you with tequila smell and taste. And the mouthfeel is just coats your tongue with oily, sticky, tequila overkill. A beer like this could shine with nuance and subtlety. That is severely lacking here. One would be better off drinking actual tequila with a beer chaser.

    Admittedly, I'm not a fan of the style but since I still have some of these that a friend brought over, I'll give it another shot.
