đş Kickball Champ by Civil Society Brewing
This one slaps!
9% ABV DIPA brewed with Citra, Simcoe, and Idahoâand yet it drinks far smoother than the number on the can suggests.
đMouthfeel: Pillowy-soft and medium-bodied, likely thanks to a malt bill heavy on flaked barley and wheat.
đAroma: Bright bursts of orange peel, underripe mango, and a whisper of pine needles.
đ
Taste: Citra leads the charge with big juicy citrus, but doesnât drown out the subtle pine resin and earthy grip from Simcoe and Idaho 7.
âď¸Balance: What really stands out is how the resin and dank from the latter two hops are tempered, not erasedârounded off by the sweetness of the malt and the brightness of the Citra.
It's not trying to punch you in the mouth with bitterness. Itâs doing something more interestingâlayering flavor, hiding the ABV behind texture and aroma, and finishing dry enough to keep you coming back.
Not just crushableâfor 9%, itâs almost deceptive.
