Zero Issue Brewing Primordial (Issue #77) – American IPA at 6.0% ABV (C$4.45 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 1-Nov-2022, reviewed 17-Nov-2022)
Appearance: hazy pale gold with one finger of fine white head diminishing gradually to a thin ring, spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: stone & tropical fruit, catty pine, bready malt, citrus. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium slightly creamy body, moderate-low carbonation, off-dry medium duration finish. (4/5)
I’ve only had twenty-some-odd of their 77 issues, so technically I can’t compare this to their entire lineup. That being said, it’s closer to the bottom than to the top for me. Nothing really wrong here (obviously, or I wouldn’t have rated it as highly as I have) but it’s just not very exciting and suffers in comparison to some of their other offerings. Solid, but not memorable. (14/20)
This will be my 5,425th unique Untappd check-in.
