Equilibrium x Weldwerks Tera Bitrate Fluctuation

Leave a comment

Brewery: Equilibrium Brewery x Weldwerks Brewing
Country: USA
ABV: 8.5%
Style: New England / Hazy Double IPA

Brewer Description: (from Untappd) Our collab with Weldwerks amps up the hop bill to near extreme levels. Using the same base with an adjusted hop schedule, Citra Incognito, Citra T-90’s and Idaho7 was added to the whirlpool with a huge dry hop of Strata, Citra, Galaxy, and Bru-1. Tera Bitrate Fluctuation pours with aromas of pineapple chunks, mango, and lime with juicy flavors of pineapple in syrup, ripe mango, lime gummy wedges, fruit punch box drink, and a touch of Anjou pear. Despite the amount of hops, this beer is extremely bright and crushable with a pulpy mouth feel and a dank lime custard note and our #EQjuice finish.

My rating: 4

My ratebeer.com rating: 3.9

Intro: A 1 pint can, with no clear canned on or best before date. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A hazy orange colour with a two finger white head that had good retention and left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: A little weak, but there’s pineapple, citrus zest, lime.
Taste: Lime, citrus zest, pineapple, candied citrus.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate to soft carbonation.
Overall: Aroma was a bit weak, and while flavours were interesting, they weren’t among my favourites.

My rating: 3
My beeradvocate.com rating: 3.87
My ratebeer.com rating: 3.7

Intro: A 1 pint can, canned on 5th July 2022. Poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: A hazy murky orange pinkish colour with a one finger dark orange head that dissipated fairly quickly, while leaving sparse to no lacing.
Aroma: Guava, coconut, papaya, orange, with some cream soda notes.
Taste: Sweet, tropical fruit forward, coconut, guava, pineapple, orange, vanilla, and some booze.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied, with soft carbonation.
Overall: The aroma was nice and I would love to see guava in beer more. But perhaps the combination of the sweet, richness and some booze, did not make it entirely easy drinking.
