The Dankster King (2022) from Rouge River Brewing
3 years ago
8.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
(On tap @ The Wheeled, Barrie ON, Oct 23/22) Pours fairly hazy deep gold with a thick white head and heavy lace. Aroma and flavour are both quite dank, lots of citrus peels and oils (orange, grapefruit, tangerine), wet leafy forest, some round brioche malt peeking through. Flavour is citrus oil-forward again, nice big bite of tangerine and grapefruit, some peach/mango sweetness, honeyed malt, wet leaves, moderate dankness, some sticky resin, partly drying into the finish with moderate sticky resinous citrus oil and cannabis/pine bitterness, no real alcohol presence. Pretty dank, quite drinkable, big sticky hop profile.

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6
473mL can, pours an opaque cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out gently dank hops, some tanginess, some citrus, and melon. Flavour is a little more muddled, with gentle dankness, melon, some tangy white wine hops, and moderate chalk. A bit gritty and earthy, but the hop character is quite good. Pleasant for a hazy, but still too chalky.

Poured from 355mL can (thanks Taylor). Black with dissipating beige head. Boozy bourbon, touch of chocolate and roast malt, but overall a bit unbalanced (too boozy).

7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
355mL can, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out a nice deep bourbon barrel character, followed by medium roast, and alcohol. Flavour is boozy, with plenty of bourbon barrels, medium roast, harsh alcohol, and a touch of dry dark cocoa. Boozy as hell and slightly unbalanced -- I wish this were 4-5% less -- but the flavours are nice and the barrel character adds plenty of depth. Good but a bit too hot.

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Lightly haze, bright golden-yellow colour with a big frothy, kind of creamy white cap, very long lasting with some thick soapy patches of lacing. Aromas of sweet-fruitiness from pineapple notes, hints of peaches as well with the herbal-citrus in the background. It does get bitter and dry after a while, which continues into the mouthfeel. Not much sweetness in the flavours. Pretty much a bunch of citrus peel and zest. What I thought was going to be a real sweet-fruity IPA, became quite a dry-zesty one. Amen.
