Description
WHEN YOU SIT DOWN WITH A BEER, YOU’RE AFTER SOMETHING. Maybe it’s nuanced layers of flavor, the siren call of a favorite hop, or to test your skill identifying stone fruit tasting notes. Maybe you’re chasing the new or craving the familiar, perhaps you just want to kick back for a drink with friends—and order another of the same. At Bearded Iris, our beers meet you where you are and deliver the experience you seek, whatever it might be, because that’s what we believe makes beer worth drinking. CULTIVATE VARIETY DRIVES US AT BIBCO. (WE’RE NOT KIDDING.) With a menu that skews heavily toward IPAs, DIPAs, and pales, it can appear that we don’t, in fact, cultivate much “variety.” But here’s the thing: we’re not looking to bombard you with a checklist of styles. Instead, we know that each hop varietal and every intentionally selected ingredient contains a multitude of possibilities that can be deliberately unlocked and unleashed, then honed and hemmed in tightly, to construct a pint that’s unapologetically itself, memorably composed, and fun to drink. Every time. Regardless of style. To us, that’s the variety worth cultivating. And that’s what we bring to your table.

Very sweet, with a lot of white grape juice and Jumex Mango Nectar on the front end, underlined by caramel, orange marmalade, and residual sugar. All this sweetness clashes with the mineral bitterness on the finish, leading to a somewhat medicinal fade. A bit much for me.

Loads of citrus and fresh melon, with a vein of grapefruit zest and mandarin offset by lime, cantaloupe, and pine. Finishes bitter and laced with berries and a little bubblegum. Delicious.

Tasty festbier, with strong notes of toasted bread, caramel, pear, apple, and lemon, finished off by a firm floral bitterness and lingering yeast. Nice pint.

16oz can pours a pulpy orange with two fingers of frothy white head. Nose has orange, mango, melon, flowers, the things you want. Flavor leads with then mango and then melon and pineapple, finishes with orange and clear tangerine now. Fruity finish, nearly full bodied. Easy drinker even at 7.5%.
