An American IPA with a bitter edge that will push your citrus tolerance to the brink and back; Elvis Juice is loaded with tart pithy grapefruit peel. This IPA has a caramel malt base, supporting a full frontal citrus overload - grapefruit peel piled on top of intense U.S. aroma hops. Waves of crashing pine, orange and grapefruit round out this citrus infused IPA.

Malts: Cara, Extra Pale

Hops: Amarillo, Citra, Magnum, Mosaic, Simcoe

Hazy orange/amber. Aroma is grapefruit blood orange resin pine citrus all the way with a malty slightly caramelly base. Taste is sweet orange at first paired with much zesty orange bitterness and quite some resin later. Fruity and fresh on the tongue. Not cloggy despite the high resinous character. Really nice if you like citrus.

Go figure, another IPA. Oh well, like we don't have enough already. I don't think there are enough names for all the IPA out there. I was hoping for something mild like peanut butter or banana or something. But know this, its this deep bitter bullshit - allround. Smell is a weird brite hoppy grapefruit volatile nose. Yes, a hefe colored foggy rototilling brew. Nasty nellie chewing on green aged grapefruit rinds. Pithy grapefruit rinds, here's yer sine. Mouthcoating, pine tar, can't apprecieate. Super bold biting bastard finish. Whew.

Bottle, 0.33l. Hazy orange pour with red hue, minimal off-white head. Some lacing. Nice on the nose, herbal and fruity, lots of grapefruit notes. Very juicy. Thin to medium body, average carbonation. Medium texture. Nice and refreshing bitter taste. Wonderful aroma, strong grapefruit presence, feels almost like they squeezed the grapefruit juice into this one. Incredibly smooth and tasty. Caramel malts in the background, good herbal character. Lemon and lime. Some peppery notes in the aftertaste. Medium lasting finish with lingering bitterness. Overall, incredibly juicy and very tasty brew. Refreshing, clean and wonderfully balanced. Awesome!

Bottle. Amber coloured beer with a very strong frothy white head. The aroma is citrus with a burst of grapefruit coming through. The flavour is dry with good hops and a citric grapefruit finish. Overall a nice American pale ale. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 11/8/2017. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy golden amber/light orange color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big juicy ruby red grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passionfruit, berry, mango, melon, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, light pepper, pine, light caramel, toasted bread, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/pine hops, grapefruit, and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big juicy ruby red grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passionfruit, berry, mango, melon, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, light pepper, pine, light caramel, toasted bread, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel, herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of ruby red grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passionfruit, berry, mango, melon, lemon/orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, toasted bread, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/pine hops, grapefruit, and moderate bready malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance; and zero lingering hop/fruit astringency after the finish. Fairly crisp finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy/sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is fantastic. Zero warming alcohol for 6.5%. Overall this is an outstanding fruited IPA. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/pine hops, grapefruit, and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink; with the modestly bitter/drying finish. Never overly aggressive. Awesome balanced juicy/dank fruit and hop complexity; nice bready malt backbone, with minimal residual sweetness. A highly enjoyable offering.

Pours amber from the bottle. The frothy white head lingers. Unusual for an IPA the caramel dominates the aroma. Citrus notes and floral hints round it out. Taste is bittersweet, rubbery, full of kumquat, a dry and mild bitterness lingers at the end. Body is medium, an oily to rubbery note is present. Overall this is an odd one. Okay but not among my favorites for the style.

Licht troebel donker gouden met volle fijne witte kraag, aroma van behoorlijk veel fruit, vooral grapefruit, sinaasappel, mango en perzik. Smaken zujn redelijk tot stevig bitter, den, iets van metaal, fruitig maar krijg wel het idee sat het allemaal siroop is, matige body
