Dan received this delicious sample of Cerebral Brewing Rare Trait from friends Jeff earlier during the pandemic.

Cerebral Brewing Rare Trait

STYLE: New England-style IPAINGREDIENTS: Citra, El Dorado, and Mosaic hopsABV: 6.4%AVAILABILITY: 16-Ounce Can, Draft (Year-Round)Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website.

Appearance

Deep orange in color, with a plump, frothy head.

Aroma

Apricot, peach, and tropical fruit including passion fruit…intoxicating.

Taste

Tropical and stone fruit notes continue with citrus hitting hard after.

Mouthfeel

Wheat and oats contribute to a round and velvety mouthfeel with zippy carbonation.

Overall

Delicious and drinks like a session beer, though on the higher side. Food-wise, I was feeling tagine at the time thinking the fruit and spice notes would provide a harmonious blend on the palate.

Thank you so much to Jeff and Chris for sharing this during the pandy.

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
