On the sixth day of Beermas I went and bought for me
Six plans a-hatching
Five collaborations
Four miles of nowhere
Three tropical tree eggs
Two staring wings
And an icy raven looking needy
This was one of the bird suggestions, grabbing at straws a little bit. It is a bird, for sure, not one that's in the song I think, but maybe I can make do...in fact, I'm sure I can make do. Look at that face! That bird has a plan. We might even say he's hatching something. A plan like an egg, right? Right? It's not that much of a stretch! This might be the first can of Cosa Nostra I've picked up, although I remember them from the Vallecas beer fair. Then it was a porter, and now it's a Double Hazy IPA, a little backwards some might think. But, Brufol might have some tricks up its feathery sleeve.
Extra juicy looking, with very fine bubbled head, very much like a fresh-squeezed orange juice. Similar aroma, maybe a little bit lighter. The feel is also very juicy, thick and mouth-filling. It feels like it wants to get to sweet, but can't quite make it out of bitter, although it isn't fair to call it a bitter beer either. It's weighty and pleasant to drink, without disappearing into the ether, but there's no over-reliance on acidity or citrus, so it's really well balanced. I'm hoping the plan was to make a perfectly drinkable hazy because that's what was achieved.
