This is my 4th homebrew and my first IPA. Bottled 15 days ago (8-13-23), I was happy to hear a hiss when I cracked the lid. It was delicious from the fermenter and I'm hoping it is at least as good, if not better, now. This is a Heady Topper clone, a beer I haven't yet had the privilege of trying.
In other news, the craft beer world lost a true fan of craft. I never met the guy, although I've had chances to run into him a time or two. We were just friends on Untappd. The reigning champ, Darren Raymond, has passed on after having tried 28,429 different beers. His last check in was yesterday in the next town over from me, which was his usual Sunday hang out spot. No clue what happened, but he will be missed by many.
Citrusy aroma with a lot of hop character coming through (it was dry hopped). Taste has citrusy hops, piney hops and some earthiness right away. It's very flavorful. Pine lingers on the tongue after sipping along with a moderate amount of lingering bitterness.
The body is medium+ with a medium-low amount of carbonation.
I'm very pleased with this one so far and I hope by the next one, it'll be fully carbed. This one taught me some lessons on how I want to go about brewing it next time (and there definitely will be a next time).
Cheers everyone and rest in peace to a guy I never got to meet, but know we would have been friends.
