Old school triple IPA. Went well with some playtime with The Ghost, whilst finishing my book in between.
Go Birds! 🦅
Nice glass of oj to end the night. Some grapefruit and lime zest to boot.
Even in the pouring rain, The Ghost demands some play time. Back now, watching some college football.
Creamy, lot of lime, little peachy. Nice.

473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, fluffy, slowly osteoporosing, moderately lacing, white head. Citrusy and tropical fruity, slightly piney, hoppy aroma, wheaty and oaty malty background, notes of lemon, orange, grapefruit, some woody pineapple, mango, yellow stone fruit, nectarine. Taste is sweet-ish, wheaty and oaty malty as well as tart-ish, citrusy and slightly tropical fruity hoppy, notes of lemon, lime, grapefruit, some orange, mango, limoncello, bitter, zesty hints of lemon peel, minimally peppery spicy, yeasty overtones; a touch of alcohol in the finish.
Creamy-oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy and cloying palate, medium, soft carbonation.
Dangerously drinkable due to very (re-)fresh(-ing), tart-ish, citrusy flavours, excellent balance between sweet- and tartness, very creamy mouthfeel - fantastic!

Murky marmalade orange topped with a lasting off white head.
Nose is bitter orange, grapefruit, pine nibble, grass.
Taste comprises orange pith, grass, mango, guava, pine needle, grapefruit.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with earthy come lightly resinous hop bitterness.
Okay DIPA if a little formulaic and lacking the advertised NS.

Can. Okay, Adroit Theory again! Hazy yellowish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a very forward creamy sweetness. Light crisp cooling pine. Candy fruits, a light bright citrus, mild hop spice, touch of Nelson winey grape. Light crisp finish leaves a mild hop spice linger. Too sweet in the malt department but I enjoyed the hops. I continue to be frustrated with this brewery.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellowish gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, smooth and bringing a fair amount of creamy sweetness. Soft cooling pine into a fairly tangy bitterness. Tangy citrus, fairly juicy. A little Galaxy broad spectrum fruitiness. Light and semi dry finish leaves a mild hop spice linger and a mild bitterness. Nothing untoward here and maybe I am just getting old and cynical but, by Jimmie, am I so bored with this brewery. All gothic art cans and seldom any beer substance. Yawn!
