Notes:

Descriptors: dank, white grape juice, tropical berry, dank, sweaty, grapefruit

Clear straw yellow color with a head that dissipates to a thing layer of white. Big aroma right off the glass, maybe the second dose of dry hops isn’t really adding that much when keeping the first dose in the keg the whole time. Smells like white grape juice, slightly tropical with berry notes, danky sweaty and hints of grapefruit. Hard to pinpoint one thing, fairly complex aroma. Finish is super dry, it’s probably partly the yeast and partly that my mash low (144F). Because it’s dry I get a slight alcohol aftertaste combined with a grassy bitterness, similar to what I’ve gotten before with Galaxy. Fairly bitter beer, maybe a little too much.
