High Branch Brewing Co Whatcha Know About Little Vic Secret and Citra

“In the aroma, strawberry, pineapple, limeade, cherry. Cherry, lime, and raspberry in the flavor—tastes like a Sonic cherry limeade. Equally sweet and tart with a ginger-like spice to accentuate the tartness. The acid and fruit tannins create a drying effect and keep it drinkable.”

“Invitingly deep haze. Soft citrus peeks through on the nose with a deeper layer of diesel notes. The flavor leans sweaty tropical with deep ripe mango while notes of spice appear. A bit of sharp bitterness cuts through in the midtones to provide some depth. Soft pillowy malt structure.”

**Aroma:** “Overripe pineapple, light plum, banana, suggestions of pine, moderate earthy, hint of floral. Good complexity is added with some nice malt biscuit-like sweetness.” **Flavor:** “Great blend of the hops and malt sweetness in this beer. Some biscuit notes. Nice orange, mango, pineapple, and melon-like fruit sweetness. The bitterness kicks in to balance the sweetness and is a nice addition without making this too bitter. The beer is crisp and bright through the finish. Alcoholic warmth adds to the overall character without overwhelming the palate.” **Overall:** “Great double IPA with some nice bright fruit characters that are showcased well. Dangerously drinkable, this high octane IPA leaves a pleasant warmth in the aftertaste that makes one want another sip. The barleywine of IPAs.”
