30 June 2021. At Brouwbar. Shared with Anke! Hazy yellow, stable, frothy, white head. Aroma of very fresh tangerine, nectarine, rambutan, passion fruit, melon, lime sherbet, perfumey pine. Taste has sweetish tangerine, rambutan & papaya next to juicy, zesty lime; bittersweet citrus peel along doughy maltiness in the back. Floral hoppy finish, tad peppery, lots of citrus, unripe stonefruit & a touch of pine. Medium body, slick texture, average carbonation. Very rounded and the ultimate answer to thirst.

MF: soft carbon, medium to full body. Taste: pretty fruity, good bitterness, some grapefruit, mango, juicy. Aftertaste: very fruity, some banana, tropical fruits, mango notes, good bitterness, grapefruit, very juicy, lovely, some banana and banana peel.

The newest hazy IPA by Brouwbar to date, with eggshell-white, irregularly edged, creamy, slowly breaking head and completely cloudy yellow-apricot robe. Aroma of guava, freshly cut red apple, minerals, some moist white pepper, green banana, deep-fried parsley, grass, raw cucumber, white bread crumbs. Clean, sweetish onset, very smooth and restrained unripe banana, green melon and pepino fruitiness, lots of underlying minerality (more so than I recall from earlier Brouwbar NEIPAs) acting actually very crisp and refreshing; supple, slightly creamy body, white bread dough-like, coloured by grassy and grapefruity hoppiness – with just a pinch of tropical fruitiness to it, but mostly feeling ‘green’ and refreshingly herbal, also offering a late, peppery bitterness which exceeds the bitterness level of most NEIPAs today. Cleaner (in taste, not looks), more crisp, more minerally and more bitter than the average NEIPA – but very quenching and clearly distinct from its predecessors. Refreshing is the right word here.
