Can. A- Rye, citrus, dank, pine, mildew. A- Copper orange color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Mildew, rotten citrus, rye, mild bitterness. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly off finish. O- The bigger brother of 1,000 truths. Lots of rye. Overall, I get a lot of mildew basement and wet dog vibes going on. I know this is part of the beer but I struggle to get on board with it. Just not a big fan. Surprisingly low bitterness.

Draft. A- Yeasty, lemon, soapy, banana, mild clove. A- Golden color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Caramel, banana, clove, bubblegum, wheat, very subtle smoke. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- My first dampfbier and I very much appreciated it. Unique style I would love to see so much more of. Adding more of a smoke component would really kill it for me. The aroma gave me vibes of a lonely late night brewery visit which apparently is a strange aroma stuck in the depths of my mind. Perhaps the best beer I've had from Cosmic. I enjoyed this.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a nice, thick, three to four centimetre tall light brown head. Aroma of light roasted malt, toast, bread, subdued yeast and a nice smooth dose of caramlised sugars. Light-bodied; Sharp toast and roasted malt notes with a little bit of peat, nuts, caramel and even some vanilla in the finish, but very light throughout, in a good way. Aftertaste is roasty, crisp, lightly peaty/smoked and a touch of the vanilla/sweet notes finish off this very nicely. Overall, a very soft, crisp, incredibly drinkable beer that still has a lot of flavour, and is something different from a Light IPA or other 'session' based beer. This shows a lot of character throughout, but especially on the malt and caramelised sugar front, with a lot of grain, peat and light yeast notes showing through. Great to have throughout and a nice offering in Nebraska! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from BeerTopia in Omaha, Nebraska on 10-October-2019 for US$1,99 sampled at my home on the Eastern Shore of Virginia in Pungoteague, Virginia on 15-February-2020.

Very hazy golden and peach coloured body with a nice three to four centimetre tall off-white head that fades relatiely quickly. Aroma of citrus, cleanser, alcohol, yeast, biscuits, light malt and a dose of pine - quite strong. Medium-bodied; Assertive grassy and herbal hop notes up front with a lot of bitterness from the alpha acids, while still supported by some stronger malts and a dash of yeast and alcohol, with some sweetness from tropical fruits and a dash of citrus. Aftertaste shows some bitterness and a touch of sweetness with citrus and fruits and finishing with some light alcohol and punch - very nice throughout and quite strong, especially for the style and for the alcohol content, which feels higher than it actually is. Overall, a nice, relatively 'traditional' IPA that shows some nice notes, but hits as an East Coast IPA, or as it's categorised here - a nice APA. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Hy-Vee in Lincoln, Nebraska on 20-January-2020 for US$1,67 sampled in my hotel room here in Omaha, Nebraska on 23-January-2020.

Clear golden coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall pure white head that leaves a small lace on the side of the glass. Aroma of grass, light hay, some herbal hops and a light dose of malt - fairly understated, especially for the style. Light to Medium-bodied; Nice more assertive hops show up front with some grassy and very herbal characteristics along with a dose of citrus fruits, which are all supported fairly nicely by a good biscuity malt and some yeast that shows through, even at the end. Aftertaste is dry and herbal with the hops the strongest and a little bitterness from the alpha acids, but not akin to a West Coast IPA by any means. Overall, a deep and dry IPA that has a good balance, nice flavours from the dry and herbal characteristics, while still showing some light bitterness, a soft sweetness from the citrus fruits and an easy-drinking and straight-forward [middle of the country] IPA. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased at Hy-Vee in Lincoln, Nebraska on 20-January-2020 for US$1,67 sampled in my hotel room, back in Omaha, Nebraska on 21-January-2020.
