    Saw that @defunksta was drinking this one, so I figured I’d do the same. Crisp and light. Perfect after work beer.

    Bro, the dryness on this beer is superb. Trader Joe's never fails to disappoint me w/ fresh Swami's. Always in abundance, and always fresh. This beer is amazing, @RaulMondesi. And truthfully (not that I ever cared), more bang for the buck than Pliny. These are my top 2 as far as readily available IPAs are concerned. Much love, and cheers!

    3.64/5 rDev 0%
    look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5

    Crystal clear, golden hued body; dense, slow-rising, small bubble carbonation; thick head, white and loosely spongy, long-lasting. Pleasant aroma, lots of esters, pear-like; light biscuit note. Fine toasted grain taste with a somewhat sharp, piercing hop bitterness, somewhat metallic. Medium body; smooth, lightly velvety mouthfeel; gentle warmth; semi-dry.

    An otherwise good beer somewhat marred by a rough, somewhat acrid hop bitterness that detracts from the beers balance.

    It’s a Sierra Nevada kind of day for this old beer nerd. First up is this magnificent WCIPA that I’ve always enjoyed - and this has 3+ months of whiskers on it (canned 11/9/23) and is still drinking exceptionally well. I don’t know how SN does that with their hoppy beers, but I appreciate that they do. Absolutely love it.

    Ewe Make My Heart Bleat from Baa Baa Brewhouse. This one features Citra, Nelson, and Rakau. I can dig it. I've been trying to limit my NEIPAs so that I can enjoy them more. Peace...
