Best Quote During Tasting
"Crabs Adjust Humidity" is literally the name of the knock-off expansion packs for "Cards Against Humanity."
Justin:
Aroma - Massive amounts of tropical fruits: mango, pineapple, grapefruit, orange zest and. Some slight dankness is mixed in well. I tried to get past the huge fruit aromas so I could describe the malt but it was pointless. |
Score: 10/12 |
Appearance - The beer pours a slightly hazy gold with a thin, off-white head that dissipates quickly. |
Score: 2/3 |
Flavor - Very fruity hops again jump out. Mango and grapefruit are most present with the bitterness being able to mix well with the bright fruit flavors. Again, the malt is there only for balance and is subtle in the background but playing its part. Finishes semi-dry and the hop bitterness sticks around after you take your last sip. |
Score: 16/20 |
Mouthfeel - The carbonation is on the high range of medium-high and provides a crisp “carb bite” with a medium body. Alcohol is present but not “hot.” |
Score: 3/5 |
Overall Impression - This was a huge IPA for not being an imperial. The only real critique I have is that if the carbonation was a little lighter, the mouthfeel would’ve been incredible for this one. I picked this one up as a single at the Craft Beer Cellar in Clayton and for the price, I recommend you hopheads do the same. |
Score: 8/10 |
