Pinthouse Pizza Electric Jellyfish
What the brewers say
“Brewed with some of our favorite new hops varieties from our favorite hops farmers—Citra, Simcoe, Chinook, Ekuanot, Azacca, and Galaxy. Electric Jellyfish is filled with a bright tropical citrus character along with notes of orange, mango, lychee, and a floral backbone. The Jellyfish is a hazy New School IPA focusing on the juicy hops flavor and aroma while keeping the bitterness balanced and refreshing.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Fruit-forward with orange zest, lemon pith, white-grapefruit flesh. Some more subtle peach and other tropical notes on retronasal.”
Flavor: “Complex citrus notes dominate in flavor as they do in aroma. Tropical fruits—lemon, orange peel, pineapple, and coconut—mixed with slightly grassy, onion, green-pepper flavors. Slight malt sweetness. Finishes bitter, but not super dry. Well-balanced and complex.”
Overall: “Some dankness of tropical fruits and citrus make this inviting to the palate with the right amount of bitterness to balance the flavors.”
