On tap at lockhouse 6, nice place and friendly help. This stuff is a beauty, right from the start. The pour is lucious looking whitish like wit beer coudy near white but with just a tinge of yellow. Rock head. First taste is slight tart fun. Mild hop follows but it never gets over the top in the hops like its name may imply, always well controlled and easy. Palate is sizzling CO2 and quite creamy, just the way it looks. What an evolution of flavors; tart, friendly fresh hops then a rollercoaster ride thru acitate and interesting mildly astringent plastic, but in a good way. Yes, really good sizzle and that combines with the tartness to give it one heck of an experience. Considering the name, its not really that hoppy. I was expecting some sort of rude IPA but boy, this never approaches roto-tilling IPA. Very unique. Has a medium length hop finsh. This brewer is dedicated to off kilter beers and so far theyโre pretty good. Go wild!
