Our Tastes-- Pernicious IPA
A Wicked Weed, Junk bootleg, Pernicious IPA ran around my palate tonight. Almost a lager light color topped with supple white head, it goes into my nonic. The aroma was barely hop noticeable even though made with Mosaic, Citra and some NZ hops; apparently it's supposed to bring mango and papaya to the forefront. Taste is a sweet floral with a light slickness on the palate during the finish. First brewed in 2015 and also medaled with silver at GABF the same year. I'll give it this, to be a 7.3% IPA of such a blonde color and light aroma it is somewhat "mold" breaking. Fully destroyable but only made in limited quantities right now due to the NZ hops used. "It's no Pliny!", but good in it's own right
