Cloudy and dirty yellow-orange hue; opaque; thick, lasting head, white and loosely frothy. Outstanding aroma; tropical fruit; citrus; orange, papaya, melon and berries. Fresh, fruity juiciness; tangerine and grapefruit; moderately bitter; a trace of oats. Medium body; soft and smooth with a light acidity; lightly juicy; very mild dryness.

While I'm not as wowed this go around, this is still a stellar beer. Minor drops in my scores, but I'd gladly keep drinking this beer if it remained readily available in my part of the world.

4.5 4.5 4.5 4.25 4.5; BA weighted overall score: 4.48; rDev: +2.1%

Dirty light golden orange body, semi-translucent; thick and creamy white head. Pungent and perfumed aroma; floral scents; gentle fruit aromas. Light tropical fruit hits the palate; mango and kiwi with just a hint of tangerine; the slightest trace of light malt; a pervasive and welcoming hop bitterness adds contrast. Slightly heavy body, gentle yet crisp; some juicy sweetness yet the finish is fairly dry; a bit of alcohol dryness.

Canned 04/27/20. This beer delivers some fine goods to the palate. It brings some nuance and balance to the table, and satisfies on many levels. Yes, there is a reason BA scores this as a World-Class beer...

 

Good afternoon, BAs! No lunch beer today, because I was very much feeling Sunday, but I think I've recovered enough to relax this afternoon. Time for a Bastard:



Cheers!
