Allusion Brewing Chasing Mavericks
What the brewers say
“West Coast–style double IPA brewed with Warrior, Chinook, Cascade, Columbus, Centennial. Clean, crisp malt finish with slight hop bite that is accompanied by hints of floral, citrus, pine in the taste and aroma.”
What our panel thought
“Dank buds with big resinous aroma. Sweet cereal is quickly balanced by assertive orange and grapefruit hop character. Warming alcohol and clean bitterness give this beer drinkability that is easy to revisit.”
What our editors thought
“Bits of honey and fragrant tropical floral notes in the nose, with a strong orange-tangerine sip that wraps the malt flavor in a sturdy grainy package. Contemporary, yet firmly rooted in tradition.”
