Wild Mind Artisan Ales This Is Reality IPA. 8.0% ABV. Growler filled 2/4. Wild Mind Artisan Ales, Minneapolis, MN.Lightly hazy, bright golden hue, slim white head.
In the nose: tropical tones, some citrus, slight sweetness. Fruit abounds. Very nice.
In the mouth: beautiful fruit flavors, moderate bitterness, big hop flavors. Big citrus tones. Very smooth and easy drinking. I drank it up like there was no tomorrow. Goes down almost too easy.
I'm liking the variety of India Pale Ales from Wild Mind, but this one does not top the list. I look for more bitterness in my IPAs. Nothing wrong with those who don't, though.
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. This Northeast-style IPA was fermented with our house ale yeast cultures and hopped with Simcoe hops at every stage of the brewing process to create layer after layer of hop flavor, resulting in a hazy beer bursting with notes of fresh grapefruit juice, citrus peel, and just a hint of dankness.
