Indio Brewing Co Bitter Juice

What the brewers say

"99.3% pilsner and .7% Carafa II. Hopped with strata and mosaic."

What our panel thought

"Woody, piney, herbaceous nose, citrus sneaking through more in flavor. Sweet malt, sweetness accented by buttery notes, making hops harsher."

What our editors thought

"Diacetyl is very evident in the aroma, the buttery notes overpowering the light citrus in the aroma. Similar in the sip, it's difficult to get past."

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Indio Brewing Co El Chombo

“Notes of roast and dark caramel in the aroma with husky grain, and piney, earthy, and resinous hop notes. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Hints of cherry and golden currant sweetness. The sip is clean and balanced with a nice structure to support the woody, earthy, and light pine bitterness.”

Indio Brewing Co Broke & Famous

“Refined tropical aroma, lychee and guava, meets complex cereal grains. Seamless. Berry, grapey notes and lemon zest make a late appearance, moving subtly into a creamy finish.”

Imprint Beer Company Squid Prints

“Fresh pineapple, orange peel, and bits of lemon on the nose. Crisp hop notes over the palate with snaps of orange and pineapple. Warming hop-juice finish. Enjoyable, vibrant, and inviting, but lacks depth.”
