My rating: 3
My beeradvocate.com rating: 3.86
My ratebeer.com rating: 3.8

Intro: A 440ml can, with no canned on or best before date. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A hazy orange colour, with a just over one finger white head that had good retention, and left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: A little muted, but there’s orange, citrus zest, melon, grass, pine, and maybe a touch herbal.
Taste: Light sweetness and a nice light bitterness on the finish. Orange, citrus rind, mango, with notes of pine.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: It got better the more I drank it, but this could have been because I was a bit disappointed with the aroma at the beginning. There was a good sweet and bitter balance with strong citrus notes.

Equilibrium Vulgar Display of Flowers

Leave a comment

Brewery: Equilibrium Brewery
Country: USA
ABV: 8.5%
Style: New England / Hazy Double IPA
Other Notes: Hoppy · Bitter · DIPA

Brewer Description: Vulgar Display of Flower is a tribute to an aggressive yet balanced assault on the senses. It blends East-meets-West coast DIPA with our own Equilibrium twist. It is dry, bitter, piny, resinous, yet remains smooth, juicy, and drinkable. This concoction displays the hop flower’s assertive yet delicious nature with an #EQjuice finish.

Equilibrium x Cerebral Y’all Need Science

Leave a comment

Brewery: Equilibrium Brewery x Cerebral Brewing
Country: USA
ABV: 8%
Style: New England / Hazy Double IPA
Other Notes: Hops – Citra, Motueka and Strata

Brewer Description: (from website) We recently had a zoom session with our buds from Cerebral and thought it would be funny to mesh our logos together and pay homage to one of our favorite Astrophysicists, Neil deGrasse Tyson. The advocate of science and free thought is often heralded as a champion of rationality and we are big fans. Y’all Need Science uses a big base of oats and wheat and adds a hop bill of Citra, Motueka, and Strata. Upping the dry hop yet again with an exclusive 2020 harvest, Y’all Need Science pours bright yellow with an aroma of assorted citrus and dank grass. The flavor profile is loaded with citrus, peach fruit cup, mango and weed in a crazy drinkable dank finish. Our #EQjuice equation checks out with an A+ here and our thirst for massive flavor through science is indeed satisfied.
