Eric H.: bitterness as the otherwise fairly sweet finish wraps. Much better than I’d have guessed from ancient memory.

CD 211222 - Nose is bright and especially sweet, opens evoking creamy cotton candy and sweet marshmallow kids’ cereals, gradually also musty pineapple and citrus. Mouth is more bitter but fairly balanced. Cakey ~artificial lemon carries a briefly >

Eric H. is drinking a Ballantine XXX Ale by Pabst Brewing Company
Largely eurohop core is metallic with minerality, a hint of rust, and a heaping of sweet corn. Mouth is mostly soft with pleasant stimulus of fine carbonation. Slick envelope around malty sweet cereal and grass. Crisp and creamy with just a kiss of…

Eric H. is drinking an Apex Predator by Off Color Brewing at Untappd at Home
Can ~3 years old (best guess)/ Nose of slightly musty tangerine tinged with staid euro-hop minerality. Mouth remains crisp, slightly metallic ~citric acidity fizzing over dank semi-fermented cantaloupe and metallic tangerine. Briefly juicy wash dries >

No CD* -Almost soapy lemon oil nose offers bit of zest, has metallic/household cleaner edge which opens to very faint abutment of vanilla cream. Mouth largely follows opening with almost soapy resiny metallic lemon oil and cakey pith, spritely juicy >

Eric H.: ..zest cresting over creamy fullness. Finish follows the bitter oil but mellows.
Eric H.: *Picked up from the “Craft your 4 pack” section at Wegmans. All of the dated selections were at least a couple of months past canning, so I expect this was the same. Seems pretty fresh even if a couple of months old. Quality possibly affected by age.
Eric H.: As this warms the cakey fullness becomes a little muddy. The brighter lemon aspect remains soapy. This is okay, nothing special. Would be nice to compare with fresh.
Eric H. is drinking a Gridlock Hazy IPA by Five Boroughs Brewing Co. at Revolution: A Social Brew House
LCI two days hence - Rating is approximated
Draft
Eric H.: spritely effervescence and spice which mellows swiftly. Finish is muted but pleasant. Little doubt this has lost some pop since canning, no doubt affecting rating.
