Beer: Mochi IPA

by

Beer: Mochi IPA Style: IPA ABV: 7% IBU: – Hops: Mosaic, Citra ———————————– Brewery: Great Notion Brewing Brewery IG: @greatnotionpdx ———————————– Rating: 4.5/5 Notes: That passion fruit and vanilla really stand out in this one. It’s sweet and incredibly flavorful with so many various flavors going on in there. This beer was wonderful and I’ll cherish it as Great Notion takes a short break from canning. #freegreatnotion :) Can Art: Always a legit block print style from GN. Do I detect the possibility of various other versions of this mochi in the future? ———————————– Had this Mochi IPA from Great Notion yet?

One of my favorite cars growing up and such a Miami Vice feel to the font that’s used with the old school lambo pic. ———————————– What do you think of this Countach? Had one?

While drinkable and not bad, it wasn’t anything special either. Not a lot stood out with this one. The hop lineup is legit and stacked but it just didn’t have it. Looking forward to more beers from these all as it looks like they could be brewing some great stuff. Great shout out to the Deftones! ———————————– What do you think about this Phantom Bride beer?
