Nickel Brook Brewing Co. Lost in Orbit – Session IPA at 4.5% ABV | 36 IBU

Nickel Brook Brewing Co. Lost in Orbit – Session IPA at 4.5% ABV | 36 IBU (C$4.32 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 29-Jul-2020, acquired 3-Sep-2020, reviewed 7-Sep-2020)

Appearance: hazy straw with two fat fingers of rocky white head, excellent retention, heavy chunky lacing. (4/5) Aroma: mild, citrus, tropical fruit, pale malt. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate-lively carbonation, off-dry medium duration finish. (4/5)

Not precisely the same flavour profile as their Wicked Awesome, but not far off a lighter, more crushable version (albeit one missing the resiny pine aspect). Light, yes, but still flavourful, and not watery. (15/20)

7.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
