Moody Ales Beach Haze – American IPA at 6.5% ABV | 40 IBU (C$6.00 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 4-Jul-2023, reviewed 8-Jul-2023)
Appearance: opaque pale amber with two fingers of fluffy pale ivory head, good retention and heavy well-defined lacing. (4/5) Aroma: tropical fruit, oats, citrus, light pine. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet tending high, moderate bitter. (6/10) Palate: smooth medium body, moderate-soft carbonation, medium duration off-dry finish. (4/5)
I guess they accomplished the “tropical nectar” they’re describing on the label. Certainly this looks and pours like some sort of tropical fruit nectar – guava juice, maybe. And yeah, I get what they’re going of there, but it’s a bit too heavy and sweet for even a hazy style IPA. (14/20)
This will be my 5,601st unique Untappd check-in.
