tightslice (2689) - Austin, Texas, USA - DEC 20, 2021UPDATED: DEC 20, 2021 Bottle from Whole Foods Market in Winter Park, FL. Aroma is citrus, light pine, grass, melon.
Taste is grassy, pineapple, dry grapefruit, lemon zest. At first I had trouble distinguishing this from some of their other stuff (Lunch, Peeper)…but the subtle grass, pineapple, and melon really come through as it warms. Less bitter grapefruit with an equal measure of light fruity juiciness and dry citrus peels.
DWestrick (1781) - Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA - DEC 6, 2021UPDATED: DEC 6, 2021 500ml bottle - grabbed at random. Like the other Maine Beer Co IPA's - simple and delish. Nice beer
jgb9348 (9218) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - NOV 27, 2021UPDATED: NOV 27, 2021 Ever so slightly hazy golden and peach coloured body with a thick, three centimetre tall nice off-white head that leaves an odd, lopsided head on top and on the sides. Aroma of bright oranges, light grass, some citrus fruit, a good deal of sugars and some more tropical fruit notes - very nice in the nose. Medium-bodied; Assertive orange and mango flavours show up at first with a big bite of sugars and tropical fruit notes and a light touch of grassiness and some floral aspects, but this is purely fruity, with a good kick of malt to provide balance. Aftertaste shows a lot of fruits, especially the mangoes and the oranges with a light grassiness and a good balance of sugars to couple with the malt and heavy hops. Overall, a very nice and fruity beer with a good hop kick, but no real bitterness nor alpha acids that come from the mix, with a nice balance from the plentiful malts and some light herbal notes as well, but this is pretty fruity and enjoyable throughout. Overall, a nice and fruity, balanced IPA with some nice hops, but no pungency at all and no real bitterness, coupled with a good malt smoothness to get it all down. I sampled this 50 cL bottle, purchased from MOM's Organic Market in Alexandria, Virginia on 19-October-2021 for US$7,49 sampled in my hotel room here in Hampton, Virginia on 26-November-2021 after seeing Christmas Town here in Busch Gardens with my family.
