Firestone Walker Brewing Co Mind Haze Brain Melter Hazy Imperial IPA (01-03-24)
What the brewers say
“Juicy symphony of hop aromas and smooth textures.”
What our panel thought
“Aroma of lemongrass, orange, lemon, strawberry, pine, grapefruit. Flavor notes of candied orange, lemon, tangerine, grapefruit balanced by pine, cedar, hint of green pepper. Bitterness extends lightly into the finish.”
What our editors thought
“Round mango, banana, pineapple notes in the nose with a touch of classic IPA orange and pine—a blend of old and new. Vivid flavor with melon, stone fruit, a touch of banana, some forest-like hop bitterness. Modern, with undeniable familiar classic touches.”
