Another installment of my weekly group bottle share. A bit more tame this time around, but still very enjoyable!
Brewmaster Jack - Jame
a 5.4% ABV and 20 IBU hoppy Blonde Ale. Brewed with Citra, Motueka and HBC 342 (love that ish), it has a subtle, tropical hop profile that suits the wheaty, clean, hay-like blonde malts. Drinks incredibly easy
- - 7 Hops!
Night Shift Brewing - Amarillonation
8.6% ABV Belgian DIPA in their '-nation' series, showcasing hop varieties. You get the Belgian yeast characteristics and some juicy, dry hops. My biggest qualm is that there's no balance, the drying hops take over in one sip, and the next is all barnyard Belgian funk.
- - 7 Hops!
Two Brothers Brewing - Hop Juice Black
a 9.9% ABV Black DIPA. Funny story here.. was hunting for bubblewrap to send out a package.. rummaged around in a box I had recently received and felt something hard at the bottom of the box.. I had an extra freebie bottle that I overlooked! SCORE!! This is everything you'd want in a Black version of a DIPA, tons of roast and coffee, big body, and big citrus/pine hops. So balanced, but so potent! A wonderful surprise for sure
- - 8 Hops!
Elevation Beer Company - False Summit
an 11.1% ABV 20 IBU Bourbon barrel-age Belgian Quad. Stole the show, so sweet and rich, but with a nice oaky, vanilla bourbon kick. ABV is completely hidden, the sweetness is mellow and fruity. This is perfect for the style.
- - 9 Hops!
