Death Tripper is our Exxtra Galaxy IPA and it’s back from a too long slumber. Original brewed way back at our Humble BrewCafé, Death Tripper is built on a hill of fluffy flaked and malted oats and a touch of wheat. We hopped and dry-hopped this batch (and every batch) with out-of-this-world Galaxy and a small dose of Simcoe! Take a Trip! Notes of chewy peach rings, passion fruit smoothie and guava sorbet.

From tap at Proletariat, New York. Pretty juicy aroma with citrus, oats, some grapefruit, citrus peel, pineapple. Flavour is light sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Dig the oats, nice fruity IPA.

16 ounce can from Tavour. Hazy, yellow gold color. Massive, pillowy white head. Zesty fruit aroma hints at peach, orange and pineapple. Sharp flavors of citrus, stone fruits and berries abound. Additional notes of funky yeast and peppery hops. Intriguing.

Canned 5/9/24, drunk 6/2/24. Lightly hazy, pale blonde. Small, white, spotty head. Galaxy is prevalent, quite spicy with lots of spruce and light pine though no actual resin. Good honey-like malt base balances. Spicy, sprucey. A bit more dryness and bitter acid than I'd like but respectable given how bad Galaxy usually is these days. Excellent malt depth and attenuation.

Can to glass, cloudy & golden. Its a bitter bodied delightful IPA. Playfully carbonated with a medium base to bounce the bubbles where they belong.

Pours hazy light gold into a shaker. Bright white micro head with excellent retention craters as it recedes. Mango and dusty citrus aromas. Soft with mango, passion fruit and guava upfront turning to pith in the lasting finish. Yummy.

Got in a trade with larryi86. 16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 8/30/2019. Pours opaquely hazy deep golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and rocky white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a large cap that lasts. Thick foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/zest, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, biscuit, light toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/zest, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, biscuit, light toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, biscuit, light toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, and fairly sticky/resinous/rindy mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.7%. Overall this is a fantastic NEIPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mellowly bitter/resinous/drying finish; great soft feel, and not aggressive. Fantastic Galaxy, Simcoe, Columbus profile. Very juicy, vibrant, dank, and earthy hops; with a great balanced wheat/oat/malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and outstanding style example as expected.
