Bottle at CBJ, thanks to LKS. Near clear dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Tangy and slightly bitter dark malts. Tangy bourbon soaked ripe fruits, airy and semi dry finish. Decent but suffering in comparison with some of the other stellar Impies opened today.

Brewery draught, 6/21/25.
Heavily hazy, bronze-maize-golden with a fluffy, white head.
Juicy, fruity, really quite minimal on the stuff I'd be worried about from these hops. Low on wood, pine, lemongrass. Mostly juiciness, light tropical fruits and plentiful spiciness with soft and round citrus. Clean and with rich, balanced, deep, honey-like malts. No alcohol, resin or flaw noted. Aromatic, crisp, bright.
Juicy, fluffy, soft and supple with dense honey broken up by light, green spice, hints of wood, lots of lemon, grapefruit and big fruity notes. Even a touch tropical. No punch, no resin, no twang or chalk. Just soft, but intense hop and malt balancing each other wonderfully. Tons and tons of flavors. Clean and with appropriate bitterness.

Canned 5/7/25, drunk 6/12/25.
Concrete. Near turbid. Large, creamy, off-white head settles at light cover eventually.
Peach, pineapple, unripe papaya and guava with some light pine and mild gummy fruit. Lingering melon and lots of mango and overripe grapefruit. Has a nice cohesiveness to it and the Citra ties it all together. Malts show plentiful honey and white bread, balancing easily. No alcohol, resin, flaw noted.
Malty, with a soft, supple, creamy texture that dries out adding some biscuity character to the finish. Apple, pineapple, mango, clementine and various other tropical fruits in varying degrees of ripeness. Maybe some gummy fruit suggestions. A bit low on bitterness, all told, with the malts having to be quite firm to balance this abv. Still, it's soft, supple, creamy and comforting with no off-putting flavors. Just lots of fruity, juicy, citrus and tropical goodness.

Pours a hazy, orange-banana, with smallish head. Aroma is...quite pungent and kind of hard to describe. Not concentrated onion/garlic like so many, but more of a concentrated, garlic-orange juice? Is that possible? Flavor is strong citrus, some tropical fruit, underlying sweetness. Very soft, smooth mouthfeel. Mild to moderate hop bitterness in the finish. Wow! This stuff was good.

Pours a very hazy, light tan-banana color, with big, fluffy, lasting head. Aroma has a garlic/green onion note, lots of citrus, some tropical fruit. Flavors all follow. Very soft and smooth mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness through the finish. This stuff is great!
