Beer reviews >

Review: Maplewood Son of Juice (93)

“Son of Juice is a truly his father’s child. A hazy IPA dripping with fruit-juice notes. Pilsner malt and oats make a perfect canvas for loads of Mosaic, Simcoe, and Nugget hops.”

Review: Moksa Brewing Pineapple SUPERFUZZ (93)

“We took our ‘Tropical Fuzz,’ our hazy pale ale with a touch of fresh pineapple, and amplified the flavors into a full-blown hazy IPA with 4x the fresh pineapple. Combined with a 3.3 lb/bbl dry hop of Idaho 7/Mosaic, this beer is one tasty tropical treat.”

Review: New Holland Tangerine Space Machine (92)

“Tangerine Space Machine is a New England–style IPA. Its nose is huge with tangerine and a little hops in the background. The mouthfeel is juicy and full-bodied. The flavor is citrus, fruit, and subtle bitterness, which comes from a blend of Galaxy, Topaz, and Michigan Copper hops.”

Review: Outer Range Pillow Stacks (92)

“100 percent Mosaic IPA.”

Review: Corridor Brewery Squeezit (93)

“Squeeze it to the very last drop. This juice bomb of a double IPA is loaded with Mosaic and Citra hops bursting out of your glass. Strong tropical-fruit and citrus notes dominate your senses in each sip. With a soft mouthfeel and lower bitterness, you can have your juice morning, afternoon, and night.”

Review: Burial Beer To Streak Blood Across My Brow (95)

“The chuckling endless insanity of an appetite for utter disaster paves the path to unrelenting purity. Double dry-hopped with Galaxy hops. All day.”

Review: Triple Crossing All Neon Like (96)

“Our reformulated crushable Australian hops–inspired IPA with Galaxy and Vic Secret.”

Review: Springdale Good N' You? (92)

“IPA dry-hopped with Citra and Galaxy.”
