Broad Leaf Local Beer Chromatic Shatter
What the brewers say
“Everyday-drinking hazy pale ale with Talus, Mosaic, and Citra.”
What our panel thought
“The nose is an explosion of fruit perfume—tangerine, mango, with a touch of peach. The flavor shifts emphasis to mango/papaya, accompanied by a steady and persistent bitterness. Pleasant perfume note kicks back in on the retronasal with each swallow.”
What our editors thought
“Spicy mango nose with sweaty undertones leads into the punchy sip. It’s sweet, fruity, and spicy, with a ratcheted-up intensity in bitterness and sweetness despite its small size.”
