“In our search for balance, we began to explore the creation of a beer which would celebrate the flavors and aromatics of South Pacific tropical fruits without the bitterness of many West Coast IPAs. The Juiced Lychee IPA showcases the same tropical profile which provides acidity for salsas which cut through rich dishes like al pastor tacos and fried shrimp. Enjoy this IPA on the beach—or around your closest friends thinking about the beach—while celebrating with all of the tacos and seafood that you can hold in one hand.”
Um. I keep thinking these beers are going to be better than they are, and I keep being disappointed. If you want to call this one tropical, knock yourself out. The one I had on tap at Byrne’s Grilled Pizza this afternoon might well have had some tropical flavor, but it wasn’t prominent. There was fruit flavor, but it was sort of all over the place. It had a nice, dry finish, but was not especially impressive.
