Flying Boats Brewing A Galaxy Far Far Away – American IPA at 6.3% ABV | 42 IBU (C$6.15 at Collective, 473 ml, best before 19-Jun-2024, acquired 23-Apr-2024, reviewed 3-May-2024)
Appearance: hazy pale gold with two fingers of loose white head, excellent retention and spotty soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: tropical fruit, citrus, cereal grains. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, medium duration slightly astringent finish. (3/5)
Brewer notes say this is “centred around Australian Galaxy hops” but doesn’t specify what other hops were used. Pleasant aroma, but the flavour is slightly sharper by comparison, and that carries through to the finish. Pleasant but it falls slightly short. (15/20)
This will be my 5,811th unique Untappd check-in.
7.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
