Ecliptic Brewing Ice Giant Cold IPA
What the brewers say
“Fruity, citrus notes, resinous hop aromas. Finishes crisp, clean, dry.”
What our panel thought
“Lightly pine-needled nose with a hint of mandarin. The flavor follows suit. A firm bitterness holds the citrus and woody flavors together and transforms into a relatively quick finish. Chewy mouthfeel provides a great backbone to the beer. A strong take on the style.”
What our editors thought
“Light and restrained in the aroma and flavor, with bright pineapple and yuzu tones diffused by a vaguely earthy and distributed bitterness. Modern without the self-consciousness or pretension, comfortable in its minimalism.”
