Trackdown was nice, but Juicy Lucy is nasty! We continue to raise our NEIPA game with a tropical, action-packed NEIPA called Juicy Lucy. A powerful fruit bomb flavorful enough to take on big-boy IPAs, but charming enough to wrap casual beer lovers around her little finger. We have big expectations for our new core superhero NEIPA. Cuz this Lucy is freakin’ Juicy!

Hazy light yellow with fast receding head. Pretty neutral nose: floral, pear notes, faint grapefruit. Delivers more on the palette: orange Marmelade, grapefruit, pear drops. Nicely rounded, lingering hoppy finish.

One of the post-Heineken takeover NEIPAs by Uiltje (launched two years after said takeover, which took place in 2021) - now on the shelves of the Albert Heijn supermarkets. My can comes from the plant in Lokeren and was brewed in August - so I am tasting a hazy IPA from a supermarket at a mere three months old... I am still impressed by this radical evolution in beer, even despite the Heineken takeover in this case. Medium thick, off-white, 'Brugse kant'-like lacing, breaking but generally stable head on a hazed yellow blonde robe with warmer apricot tinge. Aroma of granadilla, overripe papaya, stale pomelo juice, gari, stewed sweet onions, 'diesel', dough, very ripe cucumber flesh, sweetclover, hints of mango, cooked green bell pepper and honey. Fruity onset from the hops - again granadilla and papaya, along with citric pomelo or even yuzu, but remaining quite low in sweet effects for this style; lively carb with minerally effects, smooth pale maltiness straightforwardly ensuing - but drenched in the hops, combining citrusiness with pepperiness and a dash of tropicalness, pushing forward retronasal aromas of lime blossom, fresh vine leaf, starfruit and pomelo peel. The hops even add some lingering bitterness, while a deeply situated yet persistent minerality also 'zings'. Fruity and zesty NEIPA - not as 'juicy' as expected perhaps based on its name, but decent enough. In rating this, I do not forget that I found this at less than three months old on a supermarket shelf - let that sink in, if you are old enough to remember what beer was in Western Europe two or three decades ago...

Blik gedronken tijdens vakantie met familie.
Troebel geel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag.
Aroma van citrus en tropische vruchten.
Smaak van citrusvruchten en licht harsig.
Nasmaak is iets hoppig.

Hazy gold with a bubbly white head and a soft citrus aroma. A touch fizzy with juicy fruit, sharp fruity bitterness and a dry bittersweet finish.
