What's on the Can: "Beer Zombies collaboration Vol. 1 Where it all began. The updated recipe is triple dry hopped with Amarillo and Galaxy. This hazy DIPA has a floral aroma and flavors of citrus, berry, lychee, and bubblegum.

Keep Cold. Drink Fresh. Unfiltered and super hoppy, sediment is normal so let it settle and leave it behind. Always pour into a glass. Cheers LCB Brewmaster!"

Where distributed: Local Craft Beer can be found in California.

REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Poured hazy peach-colored into a pint glass. Unfiltered; lots of sediment at the bottom of the can. White head; some lacing. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Amazing combination of citrus, stone fruit, and berry. Similar to POG (passion fruit, orange, and guava). Complementing oaty malt. 4.5/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose; predominantly pleasing tropical blend of citrus, stone fruit, and berry. Tropical gradually increases while the oaty malts hold fort. Aftertaste is all tropical. Extremely drinkable. 4.75/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, some carbonation. Extremely juicy with virtually no dry tongue. 4.75/5

Overall (20%): An outstanding to world-class Double IPA. After having the first LCB brew, I had to go back for more, and they came through again with flying colors. Off-the-charts juicy on the aroma and flavor. 4.75/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.675/5
