Heady Topper from The Alchemist

11 months ago

9.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 9 Flavor 10 Texture 8 Overall 9.5

30 March 2025. Can from J&B Craft Drinks. Canned: 7/11/2024.

Hazy golden, stable, foamy, off-white head. Complex aroma of grapefruit peel, lime zest, cheese rind, pink peppercorns, green olive, spruce, hashish, vague garlic, gin. Taste has sweetish melon, mango & peach in a biscuity, bready malt body, surrounded by subtle sourish lime and umami, even somewhat salty green olive. Bitter spicy, herbal & dank notes lead the way into an even more bitter finish of piney & resinous hops; a bit peppery but maintaining the fruitiness of grapefruit peel and orange. Medium to full body, oily texture, soft carbonation. As ever, it's hard to objectively approach beers of this renown, but there's no denying its complexity, depth and balance. Wonderful!

Fiend Without A Face (Ghost FIEND) from Adroit Theory Brewing Company

11 months ago

8.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 9 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

Can from Stacks. Hazy ochre, small, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of canned peach, pineapple, ripe passion fruit, apricot, Turkish delight, triple sec, cake, dough, white onion, vague diesel. Taste has sweet canned peach, pineapple & lychee in a smooth cake-like, doughy and creamy malt body; some dank & spicy white onion notes around it. Floral and peppery hops in the finish, softly bitter citrus peel but quickly countered again by juicy peach as well as sweetish and warming triple sec-like alcohol. Medium to full body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Very much on the sweet side, but quite delightful.
