Junkyard Double Dry Hopped Wicked Awesome Slurry India Pale Ale

 Junkyard Double Dry Hopped Wicked Awesome Slurry India Pale Ale.

8.5 % ABV. Junkyard Brewing, Moorhead, MN. 


Seriously hazed, bright golden/orange hued, large and lasting, lace-leaving, ivory head. 

In the nose: Grassy, floral, piney, citrusy delights unfold. 

In the mouth: Soft and silky. I won't say "pillowy", because when's the last time you drank a pillow? Exceptionally smooth. Big citrusy flavors, orange and grapefruit and lemon galore, just a smidgeon of bitterness, all coalescing on a dry note. 

Citrus meets a touch of tropical, but all wrapped up in dry. Just enough bitterness to keep it interesting. Grassy, citrusy, and absolutely delightful. 

I may rail against the hazy and the murky, but when it works, it works. 

This New England Style Double IPA is brewed and dry hopped with a blend of Eureka and El Dorado hops for a dank hop character, hoppy haze, and pillowy mouthfeel. Strong tropical notes, especially mango & pineapple come through with hints of pine and a nice overall sweetness that you probably wouldn't expect from a Slurry Monster!⁣ 

A mysterious shape appeared in the murky haze, and suddenly she felt the leafy claws of the Slurry Monster! This hoppy brute features Eureka and El Dorado hops for a flavor that's both dank and juicy.
