from the skies

It's still a strange week, cloudy and dusty outside.  The Mars dust is mostly gone, but you still work up a thirst just being on the street.  I'm not sure how much of the desert was deposited in Norway, if any was at all, but the can goes with the recent environmental decoration.  The name too: Apocalyptic Thunder Juice.  Granted, we haven't had thunderstorms, just rain and muddy rain, but it does feel like the gods of weather are trying to send us some kind of message.  Maybe Amundsen has some kind of divine connection.

It's one of the lighter colored NEIPAs, abundantly headed.  It also has a very delicate aroma, although citrus fruit is clearly present.  There's also a little peachiness, perhaps some pineapple sharpness too.  The flavor leans more towards the peach, not a lot of citrus tang, although it has some thickness and fresh-squeezed juice texture.  Like some other NEIPAs, the taste even reaches into melon territory, leaving a very clean and refreshing feeling behind.  It's actually more refreshing than some of the more citric types, which can end up squeezing your throat with their acidity, while this one soothes on the way down like a cool breeze.
