Fernson Brewing Curio

“Muted aroma of lime, guava, tropical fruit. A note of grassiness and mint. Herbal, grassy, and minty notes become prominent in the flavor with light mango and guava. Heavier on the citrus/pine hop character than on the tropical fruit. Quite bitter, light bodied.”

**Aroma:** “Earthy, piney, grassy hops notes. Hint of biscuit malt. Orange peel, lemon-drop candy, hints of scallions, melon, very subtle grainy malt notes. Overall suggestion is of brightness.” **Flavor:** “Initial punch of fruity hops flavor that diminishes quickly. Tropical fruit on the tongue more than in the nose. Substantial evergreen character is a nice surprise. Good creamy mouthfeel adds to the overall palate character. Bitter finish is grapefruity and smooth. Malt plays a supporting role but doesn’t get in the way. The green-onion note sits on the tongue through the finish. A lot of spruce and pine notes.” **Overall:** “Moderately malty IIPA, very strong on the pine/resin side with a touch of citrus on the nose. A deceptively drinkable double IPA! Great blend of classic American IPA character along with some New-World flavors that make for a delightful tasting experience.”

“Chalky minerality in the nose and flavor. Fruit-forward, with limited clove spices. Creamy and tart wheat is unbalanced by a serious lack of carbonation.”
