Our Mutual Friend Brewing Neon Nail
What the brewers say
“Juicy/hazy IPA hopped with Galaxy, Citra, and Vic Secret.”
What our panel thought
“Aroma suggests mango, dank papaya, peaches, pears, melon, faint plum; some sweet grain stands firm. In the flavor, that firm malt takes second chair to mango, grapefruit, pine, and resiny hash. Medium-high bitterness. Some spicy alcohol carries into the aftertaste; grapefruit pith and pine linger with sweet biscuit malt. A bit too soft.”
What our editors thought
“Light, fresh floral note with faint kiwi and guava. Strong malt in the sip bends the tropical note toward mango, with a prickly herbal bitterness.”
