Can from Eltham Wines, Eltham. Hazy gold pour with a blink and it's gone white head. Aromas of dessicated coconut, vanilla, citrus. Flavours of cookie dough, more coconut, lots of citrus. Can't discern much almond action though. Interesting brew.

Can. 8.2% beer which the brewer describes as a dipa but hey, Ratebeer knows better eh? Ice Cream IPA? Fucking stupid Ratebeer style crap. Right, enough of Ratebeer lameness, what does it drink like? A hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry with a decent fine minerally crispness. Sweet pale malts, light vanilla and coconut blend well with the light but bright citric orange. Yeah, a modest almond vibe, not dominant here. Mild pine. Light finish. Nice Ice Cream dipa. Think these guys could do a great cherry bakewell dipa. Lay on the El Dorado hops, almond, vanilla and cherry extract. Bobs yer uncle!

Can 1 pint: Pours a cloudy, almost opaque yellow with the tiniest of heads. Nose is distinct and very refined coconut - any Sorachi Ace also up there? Medium body, a dry fruitiness but again dominated by those very fine coconut notes. Slightly sweet with some late balancing hops. Pleasant one from Decadent this. 050719

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours very hazy medium golden amber color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense spotty foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big coconut, mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, almond, vanilla, cream, honey, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of coconut, citrus/fruity/tropical hops, almond, lactose, and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big coconut, mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/rind, light peppercorn, pine, almond, vanilla, cream, honey, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness; and slight fruit tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of coconut, mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, almond, vanilla, cream, honey, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of coconut, citrus/fruity/tropical hops, almond, lactose, and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready/grainy, fairly sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 8.2%. Overall this is a fantastic flavored NEDIPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of coconut, citrus/fruity/tropical hops, almond, lactose, and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV, with the mellowly bitter/resinous/drying finish; great soft feel, and not aggressive. Fantastic Mosaic profile. Very juicy hops/fruit, with light dank/earthy notes; and a great balancing lactose, and wheat/oat/malt backbone. Mild residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example as expected. A bit more bitter/drying than most of the rest of the series, but still just as impressive.

Basically a solid IPA with a huge coconut nose, slight macaroon flavor after. Nose is killer.

Can shared at Lucky Bamboo. Pours a clearish gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Coconut forward nose with sweet cookie and tropical fruit aromas. Sweet on the palate, body is a bit thin with more cookie and coconut. Lingering pina colada notes and again very sweet.

Pint can. Pours bright hazy yellow. Pineapple, cinnamon, coconut, pina colada, sweet lime, synthetic spice stuff. Good body. Extremely unusual but goddamn tasty at the same time.
