State of Brewing Dry Hopped IPA from Aldi calendar. Wisconsin.
Cloudy antique gold-amber with a ropey head; dinosaur fossil and stylized anatomical organ lacing. Big grapefruit green grape and cut lime bullnoses, bends around to lemon panna cotta and vanilla. Hard citrus palatal entry gets cross checked by broom straw and cyprus wood, leaving lemon cookie dough along mid-tongue, walled by lime pith. Acorn, walnut and underripe pineapple enrich the finish. This ipa is aggressive hoppily, but damn refreshing and endlessly informing in the post game.

Speckled floater nebula of golden light in stasis. Perfect crown of bright ivory flaunts an undulating lacing landscape. Equine. Jalapeño freshness, chive, pear, and ghostly grapefruit. Floral with jasmine, peach blossom, carnation, daisy, and strawberry. Creamy clouds of orange, tangerine, grapefruit creme, vanilla blossom, lemon nougat, almond, lemon soda, quinine, tartaric resonance, lemon-lime alkaseltzer. .

Über-bubble, if-just hazed, loose ocean foam, goes poof!, then just nebulae. Oily lacing of misfit moustaches. One swirl, though, and instant star nursery. Tangelo-lemon goodness blasts from the glass! Pure tropical mango from the tree. Grapefruit aspirations. Equally bright palate with the focus on a mineral-citrus that finds the perfect palatial trajectory, and sticks the landing on four hops. Namely, Mosaic for the baptismal tesserae, Citra for the gilded apse, Hallertau Blanc for the hallowed ground, and galaxy for the space between. Amen to the combo. Tartaric reverberations through a briny air, really quite evocative. This tastes the way Florida sometimes smells just after a rain. Tropical and saturated, but clean and spring-y. Jasmine, sweet grapefruit pith, lime and lemon. Really a great beer! .

Apple cider amber with thick day-fog top layer that reduces to snow crystal tam. Mutant duck pond straggling lacing soon becomes window sill insect anatomy graveyard. German beer nose with tinges of orange rinds dried and fresh. Yeasty-haziness gives it green plantain and lightest spearmint marshmallow and artichoke. Damn tasty though, despite its jumble of signals. Jamaican coco bread, rosemary bits, polenta, beer-bitterness that the style usually glosses gives it a nice perspective lemon peel and lime, candied ginger and grapefruit; all low-keyed and harmonious. Lemon bread with poppy. Tasty yeasty baby beastie.

Big soft headed white octopus. Opaque, hazy, red-just-below-the-head soft-transitions to amber to lemon sorbet. Matador-giant lacings with low angle energy postures; twisted winter woods that stick hard. Lemon cake and orange bread nose breezes sweet carrot and even sweeter grapefruit and delightful cherry blossom. White cherry and raspberry- grapefruit over mandarin and its peel, candied ginger, nutmeg and a pith party. Mined salts and buzzy copper seem to interplay with underripe pineapple and distant orange essence in minutiae. #sixpointbrewing #sixpointbrewery #sixpointhootie #hops@#ipa #indiapaleale #hazy #hazyipa #idahohops #amarillohops #eldoradohops #galaxyhops #beerisculture #nybeer #brooklynbeer #beer #bier #biere #birra #cerveja #cerveza #ale #smallbatchbeer — 4 years ago

Nice pale-yolk opacity with egg-white fuzz. Even lacing of desert dunes. Grapefruit-pineapple nose leans tropical, but shows sweet lemon pith on the back. Orange blossom and sweet basil flower. Active mineral component to the sip, lemon oils and grapefruit on the slug, and a resinous and bitter hempseed on the gulp; though sweet citrus sails through. There are competing elements here, that defy cohesion; flashes of brilliance, and tumult. Feels like a damn party alright. .

Gilt gold and star bright crown of egg foam white. Soft grapefruit, tangerine, orange, and lemon twist bursts, candied ginger and lemon merengue nose commotion. Ripe lemon, ripe lime, pink grapefruit, raspberry ketones, beeswax, lemon ice, frozen jalepeno, and clean berry taste, with lemongrass presiding. #freestatebrewing #freestate #lfk #lawrencekansas #ipa #yakimaniac #indiapaleale #ale #beer #bier #biere #birra #hops — 5 years ago

Lemon curd colored; fluff puff of alpine clouds. Bikinis and bows meet Arabic calligraphy lacing. Lemon freshness entwines with orange, tangerine, Brazil nut, and a dusting of pineapple-grapefruit. Soft cirrus citrus layers drift across the palate in pale orange and yellow lemon cremes as light as foam; dried pineapple, powdered lime, lemon-lime pith, metallic-electric grapefruit that shimmers through the crystalline hop finish of this racy and delicious DDHNEIPA. .

Cloudy yellow of old bones crowns the roiling trove. This one came in costume, as a peel reveals the sour ‘neon shades’ of its former life. Nelson Sauvin, you rascal! Prickly pear flavor suspended in a mucilaginous grapefruit, pomegranate, and lemon oil jell-o. Thin skin orange with pith, salty lime, peppery green grapes, and pine. Can’t quite put a finger on what makes this so dang enjoyable, but there it is. Sparkly, minerally, for sure, but tropical with crystalline pineapple, like a rocky wood that ends on a tropical beach. Eco-dichotomy. .

Parish Brewing Braincake DIPA! White grapefruit color with bubble striation, forming a yellow-tinted, white froth that dissipates rapidly to spitbug spots atop a cumulus cloudscape. Big nose of fresh juices; lemon, orange, grapefruit, and tangerine with a lime zest. There is a sense of rainbow sorbet to the whole. Piths of the aforementioned play background, while lemon crystallizes tantalizingly. Kumquat and guava swim in a palatable pudding of pineapple-tangerine, sporting defensive spikes of lemon essence filled with venomous grapefruit oils, somehow rooted on tangy malts. There is an exquisite balance at play, salivation and wicking churning up impossible combinations that seem citric, minerally, and soft in a melodic interplay. This one is really milking my fangs in the best of ways. .
