Description
Whether it’s changing careers, naming our brewery after a seemingly incongruous approach to beer, or donating 100% of every Temperance Trikonasana yoga class to a different local nonprofit each month, we like doing things differently.

12 ounce can from Binny’s River Grove, 9/19/22. New brewery! Brewery #2098, USA #1701, Illinois #75. Clear gold, large fizzy white head, below average retention. Aroma of bready malt, caramel, yeast, stone fruit, and a buttery note. Taste is bready malt, stone fruit, yeast. High carb, too high. I feel like it’s stripping the flavor a bit. Overall decent.

355ml can: BBE July 2022. Given to me by Martinish, drank at home on 9th April 2022. Misty yellow body, decent white topping that lasted. Mixed bag of fruits in the nose, more dank in the flavour/taste. Would have been better fresh I expect.

Can from Beer52. Hazy yellow-amber with a karg, lasting white head and a pleasantly soft fizz. Mild tropical aroma. Wheat chaff and yeast up front on tasting; it's quite dry. There's a little pineapple, lime and pine behind, and a dry, moderately bitter, slightly earthy finishy. It's the dry wheatiness that dominates though. Really not what I was expecting in a NEIPA, and not a beer that I particularly enjoyed.
