Anchorage Brewing Company The Trickster – American Double / Imperial IPA at 8.4% ABV (C$11.65 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 28-May-2024, reviewed 14-Jun-2024)
Appearance: hazy pale gold with two fingers of pillowy white head, excellent retention and moderate soapy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: stone & tropical fruit, citrus, cereal grains. (7/10) Taste: high sweet, high bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium slightly slick body, moderate carbonation, building bitter warming finish. (3/5)
I’m starting to sound like a broken record on the last few I’ve reviewed, but: this really didn’t impress me. I don’t know if it’s just age, but there really wasn’t much depth of flavour going on here. Not up to their usual standards. (13/20)
This will be my 5,862nd unique Untappd check-in.
6.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
