Very hazy, thick and flush with citrus tones, slim white head.
In the nose: Much fruit, low bitterness. Mango, orange, papaya, passion fruit. Nice citrus/tropical notes. Fairly mild and pleasant.
In the mouth: greater bitterness, and more citrus flavor, lots of lemon and orange. Bitterness increases. Medium body, easy drinker. Smooth and lively. Fruitiness never strays far from the bitter strokes. I never forget that it's a beer. That's important.
It's an increasingly complex beverage. A lot going on, and a lot that I like. Bright, fresh, fruity, delicious. I'm still not crazy on the hazy, but I can dig this one.
Wild Mind Artisan Ales specializes in wild, sour, farmhouse, and rustic ales that are created using barrel aging, blending, and our own wild Minnesota yeast. Hug of Thunder is a lightly sweet, deceptively simple NE-style IPA. Brewed with Citra and Simcoe hops, this hazy IPA has an inviting floral nose and an even more inviting bitterness. With Passion fruit.
