Respond React | React Respond takes the dry hopping schedule from Special Lady Friend, swaps a healthy amount of Simcoe Cryo for Mosaic Cryo, and applies it to a grain bill with a much higher proportion of flaked oats. As a result, the nose and palate burst with a heady combination of peach rings and ruby red grapefruit, with underlying suggestions of passionfruit. Expect a mouthfeel that is both unequivocally smooth and medium-bodied.

Ultra hazy golden, peach and copper coloured body with a very thin, super large-bubbled and fast-dying tan head that doesn't leave anything on top after a few seconds. Aroma of oranges, pepper, grass, hay, flowers, pine and grapefruit - quite potent and pungent, but in a good way with a bunch of hops showing through. Light to Medium-bodied; Crisp grassy, herbal and floral flavours show at first with a nice bitterness from the hops, but a light sweetness make this nice and refreshing, with a dash of lemons and citrus at the end that provides some balance and robust flavours with the pungent hops and strong-ish malts. Aftertates shows some deep citrus and hoip flavours with a light peppery and herbal element and a touch of citrus fruits that give some complexity to the alpha acids of the hops and while a tiny bit of alcohol and malt comes through, this is easy-drinking. Overall, nice, crisp, robust and very citrusey with a nice balance and easy-going profile. Good to sample, even after election day and yes, I voted. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Ye Old Spirit Shop in Frederick, Maryland on 29-November-2020 for US$5,39 while cutting down our family Christmas tree for the year, sampled at my house here in Washington while preparing for Christmas on 21-December-2020.
