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

Draft. Light amber body with a frothy, off-white head, diminishing. Aroma of grapefruit, citrus, caramel, toasted grain. Medium body, watery/velvety texture, moderate carbonation. Light to moderate bitterness in the finish. Grapefruit, pine, citrus taste.

$2.25 can, Vinosity. Orange, hazy, with a beige head. Aroma is tangerine, orange peel, orange pulp. Flavor is tangerine and grapefruit - like the whole fruit thrown into a blender, light grasses and light leaf. Really nice.

Too much grapefruit puts a weird aftertaste on this one. Too much misplaced fruit tang here. Pours orange amber with ok head. Tangy finish with a little bitterness. Tap at Boardroom in Dupont.

The Aromas are similar to The breweries description, lots of grapefruit with a little Pine resin in some dankess in the background. Flavors are similar to nose, adding some caramel malt sweetness with good body and a little more bitter coming through in the Finish. Appearance is a medium Amber with a very long-lasting off-white foamy head. Very nice beer.

12 oz can, dark clear gold with brief white head. Medium body, sweet grapefruit and orange peel aroma. Very citrusy hops taste, with the infusion, and much orange peel to the finish. The juiciness of this beer comes off as excessive, but it still tastes fine.

Bottle. Amber color. Grapefruit and oily hops in the aroma and flavor. Malty sweetish, soft herbal notes, but the grapefruit dominates. Nice.

Excusez-moi du peu, mais Elvis avait du coffre. Cette Elvis Juice, si elle peut se targuer d'arômes globalement plaisant n'est clairement pas impressionnante ni sur la corpulence, ni sur la longueur. Côté houblons, nous sommes sur un mélange, Amarillo, Citra, Magnum, Mosaic et Simcoe. 5 houblons...vous ne serez donc pas surpris que le résultat soit légèrement brouillon, mais j'ai connu pire et la complexité est-elle au rendez-vous. L'ajout des zests de pamplemousse et d'orange est également intéressant donnant un réel ajout à cette IPA. Résultat mitigé en somme. En verre le blond orangé est très classique. Une très fine mousse blanc cassé la surplombe. Le nez est d'une bonne complexité avec résineux, miel, mangue, orange, pamplemousse et pêche. Plutôt appréciable. L'attaque de centre très clairement sur l'orange amère et le pamplemousse. On y retrouve également mandarine, un peu de poivre, pêche abricot, mangue et ananas. L’ensemble manque tout de même de consistance en bouche. Cela s'améliore légèrement en seconde bouche avec une amertume saillante et avec en rétro une base plus douce créant un beau contraste. L'arrière est réellement sur l'orange amère sur des airs de bitter italien. Le final retombe quant à lui malheureusement trop vite...C'est une pale copie d'Elvis...
