DESTIHL AMRA MANGO INDIA PALE ALE
Suitably subtle mango juicing quietly influences IPA-like citrus fruiting and light resinous pine dankness. Spry mango tang embittered by grapefruit pith and orange rind bite to contrast modest tangerine-pineapple-peach sweetness above its earthen grain bottom. Summertime fun.
DESTIHL DEADHEAD IMPERIAL RED IPA
On tap at The Oath, sweet caramel spicing (derived from red ale) encounters sharp citric hop bittering and resinous pine needling (of IPA) for bold hybrid. Mild bourbon syruping drapes bitter orange-peeled grapefruit intensity, tangy tangerine-pineapple-peach vibrancy, ripe red grape remnants and dainty floral aspect above biscuity barley-flaked pilsner malting.
DESTIHL MOONJUMPER MILK STOUT – NITRO
On tap at District Tap House NYC, soft-tongued creamed coffee entry receives subtle sour milk chocolate-malted cocoa and espresso undertones. Mild sweet ‘n sour chocolate-coffee theme picks up minor nut roast and wispy burgundy illusions that whither beneath the smooth nitro surface.
DESTIHL WEISSENHEIMER HEFEWEIZEN
On tap at Flytrap, adequate moderate-bodied hefe brings zesty lemon spritz to stylish banana-clove-bubblegum triumvirate as well as cotton-candied vanilla sweetness. For contrast, dry plantain starching seeps into sourdoughed banana-clove continuance. On tap at The Oath (2018), dry hop phenols mildly affect soured plantain esters and sweet banana sugaring while lemony vanilla stint and wispy clove-nutmeg illusions stay near doughy bottom. In the can, mildly creamed banana-clove flurry and fizzy lemon spritz saddle sweet Graham Cracker base.
(DESTIHL) SAINT DEKKERA LAMBIC
Emphatic lambic-styled sour ale given spontaneous yeast fermentation in oak barrel. Bubbly champagne sparkle, black-peppered red wine vinegaring and oaken cherry acridity pick up musky barnyard leathering. Ancillary cider, crab apple, green grape, plum, apricot and pear illusions sweeten over time.
