What was that thing that a mad scientist used to morph three little children into Power-something Puff Squad? Or something like that? I think they used to fight an evil boss-monkey-man?! We’re no experts, but we’re pretty sure this beer is the equivalent of that serum he used. Our “CHEMICAL X” won’t give YOU superpowers, but it might make you feel the same unending and life-affirming joy those little crime fighting Puff-whatever Girls had! We got the opportunity to try out the new super-hop, Tangier, and BOY OH BOY was this the ticket!
Mashed with a base of @Riverbendmalt, as always, comprised of Chesapeake Pilsner, Czech Pilsner, Oats, and Chit Malt, along with a HEFTY amount of Flaked Oats to give an amped up and luscious body, hit on the hot side with Egger’s Rakau alongside Citra Cryo in the Whirlpool and then hot-dipped in the FV with Galaxy Prysma, dry-hopped with the new-to-us Tangier, and then double-dry-hopped with EVEN MORE Tangier, a fat dab of Mike’s Magic Mix for some extra Southern Hem twang.
Notes of fresh Tangerine and Apricot, Orange Dreamsicles when they’re just at that barely-melting point, Papaya Salad, those unbelievably addicting Mango Coconut water cans, and Lemon Rind dipped in fresh resin. We had heard that Tangier had a crazy-juicy “Orange Julius meets Dreamsicle” vibe, so we tried to structure the other hops in a way to support that. We definitely supercharged it, that’s for damn sure!
