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.

Pint can from Woodman's Appleton, 7.30.21. Hazy orange, large fizzy tan head good retention. Aroma of cactus, passion fruit, citrus, pale malt. Taste is passion fruit, grapefruit. Decent.

Can. Pours a kinda cloudy light orange with a decent head and aromas of tropical fruit and honey. Flavor is lovely. It is big and juicy with lots of tropical fruit, but it doesn't get so much of that overly yeasty flabbiness of some NEIPAs. Finish is clean and fruity and ABV is completely hidden.

6.9/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Big, but leans more sweet than juicy, with a honey-and-melon front accented by a little candied orange zest, berry, and a tiny bit of coconut. Finishes with a hefty dose of boozy heat and a firm mineral bitterness. Not bad.

Not all that complex, offering up quick bursts of citrus, passion fruit, peach, and a little berry, before quickly turning to a yeasty back end followed by a mild mineral bitterness. Middle-of-the-road for the brewery.
