King Julius is an American Double IPA brewed to be an exceptionally flavorful, juicy, and hop saturated beer without rough edges or abrasiveness. Its vivid citrus aromas give way to flavors of orange creamsicle, mango smoothie, and a bounty of fresh tropical fruit. We find it to be refined and delicate amid an onslaught of flavor. Originally brewed in 2012, King Julius is our endeavor to marry our past with what we aspire to be in the future.

473ml can. Hazy, dark yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Rich and intense, juicy, tropical fruity, hoppy aroma, oaty malty background, notes of mango, passion fruit, peach, guava etc. pp., more subtle citrusy and piney aspects as well (mandarine, orange). Taste is tropical and citrusy fruity hoppy, mild hop bitterness, subtle piney and grassy aspects, oaty malty basis with low residual sweetness, notes of mango, peach and lemon, less intense notes of passion fruit, guava, nectarine, mandarine and orange. Creamy-oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy palate, fine, dense, creamy, mildly prickly carbonation. Well crafted, well balanced, multifaceted and but harmonious and homogeneous, immensely drinkable - excellent!

Medium orange-brown body, thin to medium off-white head. Aroma a tad wanting, mostly citrus and pineapple. Body is luscious, creamy, and doughy, with orange marmalade, sweet breads, guava, passionfruit, and Cadbury Creme Egg filling. Some pine needles and bubblegum in the finish. Remarkable integration. This is a gem.

Can shared in London. Cheers to Dave. Pours murky gold with a small, creamy white head. Lightly sweet, bit of aggressive, chalky bitterness, orange peel, a few oats. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Astringent finish, chalky, more citrus peel, pine needles. Not great.
