Beer at the beach house (Bach) – Behemoth Brewing Company – Hopportunity Cost IPA

All I can tell you is that this is a 7.2% ABV beer, It is an American IPA. and it’s from a new brewer.

Of Sorts, the brewer, Andrew Childs has been making beer under the “Tall Tale Ales” banner for a bit.

and some of his beers get rebranded. All a bit confusing.

Still it’s the beach house, it’s a cart beer, and I’m looking forward to it, and may update this later if I’m still able.

Update: it is powerfully hoppy, pours a nice deep orange brown, and carries a decent head. Has a full mouthfeel, but although it is resinous in its taste it’s a bit sour and there appears to be no softer balance underneath to carry it. Which is odd because the aroma indicates that there should be a caramel in there.

For no reason I think that an IPA is the easiest of the beers to make, and this is for that reason I think a swing and a miss. I can see what he’s aiming for though,I think. I’m not going to write the whole thing off, I’ll search out some other beers before I decide if this is the Emperors new clothes. Or not, I have a fridge chockka full to get through first.
