  • Poured from a can purchased at Flight Bottle Shoppe. Date on can 06/18/2020.

    Cloudy pour. Vigorous pour brings on a half glass of white foam. Retention is nice with the foam thickening, looking creamy. Spotty lacing.

    Aroma is resin, orange and lemon. There is some sweetness but mute.

    Taste doesn’t fall too far away from the nose. Nothing is immediately distinguishable.

    Medium mouth feel that is elevated by the creamy foam that remains. Medium carbonation. Lingering burn on the tongue but low to no bitterness.

    Based on the hops listed on the can I expected this beer to blow me out of the water as most Riverlands beers do. There is nothing that elevates this beer; it is average even among other Riverlands offerings. I would pass in the future. Enjoy!

Beer Notes
  • New England style DIPA with Citra, Mosaic, and El Dorado. With this beer, we pay tribute to one of our favorite bands, Foo Fighters. We use three of our favorite hops to create a juicy fruit bomb with just the right balance between body and drink-ability. We think this beer rocks as hard as the band it pays homage to, and we think you’ll love it too.
