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.
