Familia Brewing Hazy Morning New England Pale Ale – American Pale Ale at 6.3% ABV

Familia Brewing Hazy Morning New England Pale Ale – American Pale Ale at 6.3% ABV (C$4.41 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 7-Jul-2021, acquired 1-Oct-2021, reviewed 14-Oct-2021)

Appearance: slightly hazy pale gold with two fat fingers of fluffy white  head, excellent retention and heavy soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: zesty citrus, herbal, resiny pine, pale malt, tropical fruit. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry medium duration slightly spicy finish. (4/5)

It’s hard to know how to properly rate this one: it’s not really a “hazy” (NEIPA) visually, and the bitterness tends slightly high for that style. On the other hand, the aroma and flavour, though less juicy than I like to see, are pleasant and interesting. On the whole, I quite like this. (15/20)

This will be my 5,089th unique Untappd check-in.
