Description
A little background... In Richmond Virginia’s unbelievable beer scene, one of the pioneering brewpubs is a place called the Answer. Brandon Tolbert, as many of the craftiest craft beer folks know, was the head brewer and creative force behind this brewpub. He left the Answer a short while ago, when they started taking a different approach to making beer, and set out to do his own thing.
Well, flash forward to today and Brandon’s new creative project is imminently happening.
Admin Note: Beers are contract brewed at Twelve Percent Beer Project in North Haven, CT

16oz can pours a thick pulpy gold with some creamy, lacey white head. Nose has mango and pineapple and melon, oranges and tangerines, herbs too. Flavor hits with honey and tangerines, grapefruit, sour mango, grass. There's a gristy backbone that helps; provides structure. Full bodied, medium bitterness on the finish.

Tangerine infusion with plenty of citrus to stick around. Some light marmalade but works in this one. Murky orange pour with great head and lacing. Green onion comes on in light bite in the finish but it isn't as overbearing as many NEIPAs are

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a pitch black with a finger of brown head that dissipates. Big dark chocolate and molasses aromas on the nose with some coffee as it warms up. More chocolate and coffee on the palate, not much coconut that I can pick up. Roasty, chocolate finish with lingering espresso notes.
