Eastlake Electric Mayhem No: 2: Medusa

Eastlake Electric Mayhem IPA No: 2: Medusa. 6% ABV, ? IBU. Eastlake Craft Brewery, Minneapolis, MN.

Clear, golden-hued, vast ivory head, looking nice.

In the nose: Deep citrus, with patches of pine. Floral matches the fruit. Grapefruit and lime.

In the mouth:Big smack of citrus on the palate, moderate bitterness. Balance of bitter and sweet, hops and malt, all kept in check. Medium bodied, long finish. Easy drinker.  Juicy, indeed, with touches of the tropical blending with the usual citrus notes. Tasty stuff, and very likable. GB&YCDI.

Golden beer and golden tones. Welcome to Electric Mayhem. Guava, melon, apricot, and Fresca? Absotively posilutely. The mythical multi-headed psych-hop called Medusa gets the Sun Dogs' Juicy Citra IPA treatment, and it's far out. Don't get lost, man.
