Doppio from Beva Brewing & Blending

3 months ago

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8

Poured from 473mL can (pkg Jan 06, 2026). Clear amber gold with white head. Soft pine, feint dankness, light chewy malt base, balanced, but almost a touch muted on all fronts. Still quite nice, but if I'm being picky, the flavours don't shine quite as bright as I think they could.

Nelson Sauvin Mango Mini Hazy IPA from Field House Brewing

3 months ago

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 7

Poured from 473mL can. Hazed pale blonde with white head. Floral citrusy honey aroma with some background dank and tropical notes, quite nice. Taste is subuded, some decent flavour upfront, but a touch watery on the mid-palate and finish. At 3.5% this is quite nice. Would definitely drink it if it was free at a party/gathering, but wouldn't pay money to have it again.
