Bottle from Bert’s Pours a slightly hazy deep yellow with a good sized bubbly white head that slowly dissipates. Big orange and funk on the nose with hints of candied peach and lemon. Bitter pithy citrus flavor with a solid shot of lactic tartness. Mild earthy funkiness in a fairly dry finish. Interesting take on a Iambic style beer, can’t say I’ve ever had one with oranges before. It kind of works, I enjoyed sipping on this.

Draught at 5 Horse Tavern, Somerville, 5/15/16.
Hesitant to post this review especially given the other ratings, but I can only go with what I experienced and sadly this thing was very near undrinkable. Light amber-golden with a moderate haziness and a small white head that quickly receded.
Peachy-pineapple in the nose is fairly juicy and bright but succumbs quickly to moderate caramel, sourdough and pine resin on the end. Definitely dampens the perceived bright notes and comes off just a bit too malty. No alcohol or flaw noted.
The flavor suffers the most, with a huge sourdough-meets-spoiled-peach character. Resin-like pine and grapefruit add too much bitterness and a rather sluggish caramel character lasts on the finish. Low, rather loose carbonation is not able to add any levity to the texture and lots of stewed hop resin lingers as well.
Don’t know what happened here, maybe the very bottom of the keg and lots of yeast got mixed in? Not sure. Love Deciduous and will certainly rerate it at next opportunity.

Purchased a 375 ml from the brewery. Lightly pale golden color, thin head in the snifter. aroma is mild citrus, light lemons and oranges. Maybe a yeasty type hint.
Flavor is some lasting citrus, base is wheat and yeast. Mouthfeel is a bit odd / milky. Like a different consistency in the mouthfeel. The citrus element is pretty nice. The use of the oranges is well done.

Thanks AFH for sharing this one. It’s a faint yellow appearance. It smells REALLY good! Good aroma, lemon peel, oranges, wheat. Taste is good. the mouthfeel is really thin, there’s some egg-like consistency in the mouthfeel. I get a lot of peach, melon, candy like taste. dry and leaves a chalky finish.

500ml bottle from the brewery. Nicely carbonated yellow hazy color. Aroma is yeast, fresh Pils malt and a very subdued hops.
Flavor is hay, floral notes, brett, and dusty yeast. Taste is spritzy carbonation, citrus, mild yeast, dry texture with a hint funky. Very crisp mouthfeel, light and easy.

Draft at the brewery. Bright unclear yellow, full head retention. The nose has a pleasant note of grapefruit, strong notes of pine and citrus hops.
Mostly well-balanced and still very hoppy. Grain bill is enough for balance yet; bitterness lingers with a huge Amarillo character. Nice citrus and pine balance. Not tasting any alcohol anywhere which make this SUPER easy to drink. Another nicely executed Imperial IPA but… you have to like Amarillo hops. Since I do this is a winner.

Growler filled at The brewery 3 days ago. Hazy golden color that showed a thin ring around the snifter. Aroma is really nice; tropical fruits, mild grapefruit zest and mild peach hints. Tempting indeed
My favorite aspect of this brew is the juicy texture. The center of this beer is just bursting with fruit flavors. Mild tropical hints that end in a grapefruit peel / zest. The malt bill gives sweetness but the myriad of hop varieties still gives this a hop punch. The balance is quite nice, neither overly hoppy or overly sweet. It’s actually refreshing to have an imperial IPA that isn’t so bitter that it causes palate fatigue.
The 8 % is not found in the sip and it drinks more like a 6 or 6.5 percent brew. As it warms to room temperature, the bitterness increases and gives it a slightly stronger hop slap. Honestly, if your reading this review, do yourself a favor. Get in your car and drive to the brewery and judge for yourself. I finished the 750 ml growler very easily. I tried to find a flaw and couldn’t.
