Russell Brewing Company Juicy Dry Hopped Pale – American Pale Ale at 5.3% ABV | 20 IBU

Russell Brewing Company Juicy Dry Hopped Pale – American Pale Ale at 5.3% ABV | 20 IBU (C$4.00 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 23-Mar-2022, acquired 6-Oct-2022, reviewed 11-Oct-2022)

Appearance: hazy particulate-laden medium gold with one finger of fluffy pale ivory head, good retention and spotty soapy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: tropical fruit, cereal grains, stone fruit, hint of coconut. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet tending slightly high, moderate-low bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry medium duration finish. (3/5)

Brewer notes say this is hopped with Citra, Sabro, and Galaxy. I’m more or less getting the expected characteristics, but more faded and bruised than bright and juicy. Obviously far too old, might be better fresh. (13/20)

This will be my 5,397th unique Untappd check-in.
