———————————–
Rating: 4/5
Notes: First for me from Odd 13 and it’s enjoyable. I was hoping with the hyped I’d rate it higher but it may be my fault for not drinking it fast enough. I get hints of orange juice flavors from this one. Sweet and not bitter. Somewhat creamy. Looking forward to many more from Odd 13.
Can art: Awesome. Can’t go wring with a meme. Is that Frank (Devito)?
Drinkage: Way late at 2.5 months after date on can

Beer: Saturday Morning

March 16, 2019 by thebeersbeer

Style: IPA
ABV: 6.6%
IBU: 10
Hops: Galaxy and Calypso
———————————–
Brewery: Smartmouth Brewing Co. – Norfolk, VA
Brewery IG: @smartmouthbeer
———————————–
Rating: 3.75/5
Notes: Not bad for all the hype but not crazy either. The marshmallow flavor is there but it’s a bit funky. Tastes a bit like milk sugar but with some bitterness. I’m not sure if marshmallow and hops really jive together that much. It would be better as a sour or Berliner Weiss.
Can art: Can’t go wrong with the nostalgic rainbows and lucky charms. Magically ridiculous!
Drinkage: 14 days from date on can
