Feral X Nail – Nailraiser VJA

Smells like an IPA, fruity like mango, very ripe rockmelon, theres some kind of funkyness i just cant identify to it? Theres some dankness to it as well. Looks like apricot juice, a muted opaque amber colour, head is nice, no real lacing but who cares. The taste is initially a big old style IPA, first hit is straight big bitterness with a really noticeable biscuity? malt character that soon disappears to straight up pine bitterness. And its just pine bitterness from then on. Nail’s VPA meeting Feral’s Biggie Juice, supposedly, and I guess that’s correct, but it still seems vague at what its trying to do character-wise, its not juicy like a NEIPA/Hazy, and its not malty enough for a old style IPA.

Edit: 21/8/22 – I had another one of these, and its not bad. I kinda get it, but its still a bit of a mess. Add half a star.
