Black Plague Brewing Co. - Open Mind Hazy IPA: A Brain-Meltingly Delicious Haze from the Zombie Coast!
Brace yourself for an infectious wave of flavor with Black Plague Brewing Co. - Open Mind Hazy IPA, brewed right here in Oceanside, where the undead spirit thrives! From the crypt-like depths of Black Plague Brewing, this Hazy IPA is designed to unlock your mind – and maybe crave brains – with its juicy, hazy goodness. Feast your eyes on the can art.jpg], featuring a grinning zombie skull, its exposed brain practically overflowing with hop-fueled deliciousness! It's a brew so good, it'll raise the dead (and your spirits)!
Open Mind Hazy IPA shambles forth with a beautiful, opaque hazy golden hue, like a mysterious, glowing fog rolling in from the coast. Take a whiff, if you dare, and you'll be assaulted by an aroma that's positively alive (or undeadly alive?) with bright, juicy tropical fruit notes like rotting mango, putrid pineapple, and decaying passionfruit, all twisted with zesty hints of fermented orange and zombified tangerine. A subtle, soft sweetness lurks beneath, promising a surprisingly palatable experience for the discerning zombie (or human) palate.
The first sip is like a bite into a surprisingly ripe (if slightly squishy) fruit. A soft, pillowy mouthfeel will caress your tongue as layers of tropical and citrus fruit flavors – think less "fresh" and more "perfectly aged" – wash over your taste buds. This brew leans into aromatic, juicy hop character rather than sharp bitterness, making it eerily smooth and dangerously drinkable, even for the recently reanimated. The haze gives it a creamy, brain-like texture, while the finish is remarkably clean, with a lingering sweetness that will have you groaning for more... more... hops!
