What beer are you drinking now? #213

So who owns that glass design - Ken or Sam? And U2? I think I've heard of these no-name Leprechauns before.

 

Fulton Insurrection. Quality DIPA out of MN.



Cheers!

 

Feeling like sleep can wait another hour while I pop a second KBS. Haha

 

Haha I still have two left

 

There is a taste on the back end that I really can't describe. It's like as soon as you take a drink you know you don't want to swallow it. I didn't do this review and I don't think it's quite this bad but......

the nose on it is off, like something has gone terribly wrong, its not really hoppy at all, but rather sweet and just downright weird, floral and chemical laden, I do not understand why this smells like it does, but its turning me right off. the taste is the same, only the off elements are intensified. its like bad compost, preservative acid, and decaying hops that are only bitter and lack flavor almost entirely. its more like an American barleywine gone wrong than an ipa, with a huge and messy grain bill. the feel is like licking a battery, burns the whole palate from all the alcohol. fusel notes dominate the finish, carbonation tapers off, and the beer is undrinkable in terms of both size and flavor.

 

None! And I am driving 7 hours leaving now at 6:30am.

 

well then...that sounds...like an experience..

 

Allow it to warm a bit and it becomes quite tasty.
Nothing outrageously good, but quite enjoyable.

 

I know, right?
Insanity drinks nicely fresh, but you should try to get bottles aged 1-4 years (beyond 4 years, I cannot personally attest to...yet).
Oh lawd, it ages so well.
