New Beer Friday 4/16/21

Everyone quiet down please, there's plenty New Beer Friday to go around. This week there's something for every taste. Have a great weekend!

Hopkins - Coffee & Cream Stout: Aroma of fresh coffee with some background sweetness. The taste is the same with nice medium roast coffee that dominates most of the beer. a little bit of lactose sweetness rounds it out, giving it a cappccino feel. 5.0% - Only at Hopkins. 

Red Rock - Imperial Juice IPA: Hazy yellow in color, the pour quickly builds up very thick sudsy white head. Very juicy aroma with tropical, passion fruit, citrus, lemon, pineapple and pine. Good variety of fruity and juicy flavor covering the palate, I get tropical, passion fruit, citrus, lemon, lychee, pineapple, pine, resin, slight spice, and subtle bitterness, all from hop. Malt is also there with its bread and some sweet candy. 8.5% - I'm hearing that this may already be sold out for to-go sales. 

Silver Reef - Planet Utah: This new Double IPA hasn't quite made it's way up north yet. It's available at Silver Reef Now. 8.0%

Silver Reef - Java Madre: This imperial milk stout is made with coffee it hasn't quite made its way up north either. It's available at Silver Reef Now. 9.0%

Strap Tank - Pink Lady Juicy Pale Ale: I love Pink Boots time. There are so m many different beers made by women that utilize the special Pink Boots hop blend.  This version is an American pale ale with addition of hibiscus. 5.0% - Available at Lehi Strap Tank and they're saying Springville will get it by week's end.

Bewilder - Blueberry Pomegranate Sour: This one comes out today at noon. It's a kettle with the obvious fruits. 5 .0% - Only at Bewilder.

Toasted Barrel - Utah Double IPA: Nice aroma, caramel and biscuity malt, orange, hint of lemon sherbet, mango, papaya, quite floral and herbal and mellow, hint of pine, nice. Nice balance of malt and hip flavor, caramel and biscuit, lot of orange and orange pith, pink grapefruit, lemon, nicely sweet, mango, floral, medium to high bitterness on the finish, good stuff.

Talisman - Aerith: This is a sour ale made with mango and hibiscus. It debuts today at noon. 5.0% - Only at Talisman.

Melvin - Bohemian Rebirth: This is a new world take on an old lager style. It's made with pilsner and Vienna malts, Instead of going with more traditional Nobel hops, the brewers opted to go with Strata and Amarillo hops; resulting in a lager with tropical fruits, berries and pine. Good stuff. 6.0% - Found at Slackwater (Sandy).

Cheers!
