Beer of the Week

The beer: Johann Buys A Broat

Brewed by: Aslin Beer Company, Alexandria, Virginia

Description (from Untappd): "Johann Buys a Broat is a Double India Pale Ale that is fermented on our house yeast which produces peach and mango esters. Johann is solely hopped with Citra and fermented on Pineapple & Mandarin Orange. This beer has a huge creamy mouthfeel due to the oats and Madagascar vanilla beans, which round out the beer and give it a Pineapple & Orange creamsicle feel."

Would I buy it again? I think this is one of those beers that technically is very good but just isn't quite for me. Pineapple and beer go together very well, in my opinion, but orange and beer? Maybe not quite so much. The initial taste is quite good, but there's a tartness at the end that I didn't care for as much. But beyond that, this beer tastes pretty much exactly as advertised, so if that sounds like a good thing, by all means go for it. Personally though, I'm going to pass on this in the future.
