100 Watt - Merry Go Round IPA
Hailing from Eindhoven in the Netherlands, this New England (ie hazy) IPA promises a carousel of flavours on the 33cl bottle label. It comes in at 0.4% ABV and the ingredients are given as malted barley, malted wheat, oatmeal and three varieties of hop: Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe. Upon pouring, the hazy beer creates a lush creamy head that thankfully doesn't disappear. As you lift the glass you are presented with an array of fruity aromas, notably mango, tangerine and pineapple. As to the taste...a carousel indeed! Buttercotch, pine, and tangy tropical fruits with orange to the fore. The mouthfeel is soft but firm and is particularly well-rounded, which is then followed by a refreshing bite in the finish. I'm beginning to develop a theory that my favourite beers tend to have Mosaic hops in them. I shall have to see how much my theory holds up in future imbibing.
