Right Brain Brewery
Traverse City, Michigan, USA
Right Brain is hitting the market here in Michigan. I have seen several bars with Right Brain tastings this spring.
Style: India Pale Ale
5.5% abv
1Pt 6oz bottle
ONLY $6.99
AT Super Fine Wine and Liquor
In Canton Michigan
DAMN, I bought four bottles at the brewery on the first week
of March and it cost me $45.00. Okay, it
was not Dead kettle but it was a bunch of birds - Looping Owl and Hawk
what-ever. (all bottle cost the same) And from the first sip (I have not started the
review yet) this Dead Kettle is far better than that bird stuff. Okay, I am done venting. No not really. On top of that I don't even like their new location.
Appearance:
color: copper;
clarity: moderate misty when poured - light misty after;
one and half finger bone colored head;
head did not stay around long (story of my marriage);
good lacing that sticks to the glass;
Aroma: Damn a beer that smells good, I just did a bunch of
Samuel Adams that hardly had any aroma … I started to think my nose did not
work; this beer has citrus big time, it reminds me of citrus meat from a
grapefruit salad; if you like American IPAs do any other notes matter! Only 6.99 a bottle. Okay, there are some bready malts to soften
the blow.
Flavor: Grapefruit front and center; a little pink
grapefruit and plenty of white grapefruit; toasted grains in the mix; shit I paid 45 bucks
for four bottles at the brewery. Okay, it's an IPA it has citrus - do you really care about anything else?
Mouthfeel: solid bitterness, grapefruit all the way,
low carbonation, wool like texture, a solid IPA all the way, only
$6.99 at the store I go to and I paid $11.25 at the brewery.
To the Point: Flavors – it’s citrus; Mouthfeel – it’s citrus
bitter; Style – it’s IPA; what else matters.
I would buy this again but, not at the brewery! Damn $45.00 for 4 bottles and this one bottle
only cost $6.99 at Super Fine Wine and Liquor in Canton Michigan – did I say
that before – Don’t buy it at the brewery!
