Pretty impressive for them to develop an ultrasonic infusion method just to make a pretty regular-degular IPA. I like it when overly complicated processes are employed to create standard, if pretty good, fare, so kudos, Atomizer! Nothing amazing here, but also nothing to complain about; deep veins of pine, resin, dank, grapefruit, and lemon zest lead to a clingy bitterness on the back end. Mild notes of honey, caramel, and toast come from the malts. Not a bad IPA by any means, but the highfalutin brewing process does seem silly.

Bottle from Beer Ma. Full Sail Atomizer IPA 7% This one has the tag line “sci-fi suds for a wifi world”. The aroma is tangy citrus that is a little sharp and skanky. The beer has a medium body and a pretty well balanced flavor and has an earthy tangy citrus over a fairly sweet base. Not as drinkable as the pale but more fun and complex. Solid. I like Full Sail, they’ve yet to blow my mind but have one of the cheaper price points in Japan (roughly 500¥) and are usually pretty good.

On tap at Pietro’s Pizza in Hood River. Clear golden pour with a two finger cream white head with excellent retention. Taste is lightly bitter, lots of citrusy hop flavor. Lingering pithy bitterness.

Very hazy light amber color. Nice sweet juicy nose, with mangoes and apricots. Mouth feel is a bit too carbonated, but still enjoyable. Low medium bitterness.

Bottle from Boise Co-op. Hazy, medium golden with a small, tight creamy head. Light aroma, biscuit malts, citrusy hops. Taste brings more citrus , light citrusy hops too. Bitterness gets some mild dank and piney notes. Nice feel.
