Inbound / Revelation Electric Grenades TDH NE IPA

Inbound / Revelation Electric Grenades TDH NE IPA. (Triple Dry-hopped New England IPA.)
6.9 % ABV, 60 IBU.
Inbound BrewCo, Minneapolis, MN, in collaboration with Revelation Ale Works, Hallock, MN.

Crystal Clear. (Sure this is an "NE"?) Bright golden color. Slim, ivory head, leaving lace.

In the nose: Lightly floral and fruity, citrus-y. On the whole, rather shy.

In the mouth: Grabs the palate with a brief slab of bitterness, then citrus-y goodness takes over. Juicy. Pithy. Moderate bitterness, smooth-going. Light bodied, easy-drinking. Crisp, refreshing, fairly delicate. I'd even call it elegant.
There are a lot of hops employed in this one, but they don't come across very strongly. I wouldn't call it a "hop bomb", let alone a grenade.

Ends on a dry note. And all the while, it's clean and tasty. Actually, increasingly tasty the more I drink.

Good beer and you can drink it, that's for sure.

A hop grenade brewed with Cashmere, Citra, Hallertau Ariana, Azacca, Amarillo, and Mandarina Bavaria hops. Brightened with dehydrated oranges, lemons, and grapefruit. Brewed in collaboration with Revelation Ale Works.
