Perennial Artisan Ales Visions: Piña Colada

“A pillowy head invites you in for a tame lemonade, candied tangerine, tea-like aroma. Little maltiness, and a surprisingly muted flavor of black tea and fruit punch. Well-balanced mouthfeel. Finishes very dry.”

**Aroma:** “Big orange, vanilla, possibly chai, tobacco, mangos, pineapple, and coconut. A very light hops spiciness as it warms, but no bittering aroma. Piña Colada aromas are assaulting my brain.” **Flavor:** “Huge spiced and fruit notes of mango, pineapple, and maybe a touch of coconut. The bitterness is balanced and maybe slightly accentuated by, the spices. The fruity flavors are rounded out so wonderfully with a beautiful fluffy mouthfeel that is expertly executed. Finishes with a light alcohol harshness and a ton of coconut.” **Overall:** “A tropical New England IPA—this is what I would expect a Hawaiian New England IPA would taste like. Never has an IPA transported me to a tropical beach so quickly as this beer. So many positive emotions are evoked by just holding this beer near my nose, let alone drinking it. Cheers to the fine souls who brewed this beer.”

Earthy, herbal, grassy hop aroma with mild fruit and light toasty malt. In the flavor, nice balance between assertive hop bitterness, earthy-piney hop flavor, and toasty-bread malt. Super drinkable. Lasting bitterness. Could enjoy several. This hits the numbers.
