If I have a 90 Minute IIPA and a 120 Minute IIIPA tonight, should I take 210 minutes to drink them?

There's a reason their name is Clown Shoes...

Guess my laptop is infected with covid or something since i’m posting via phone. Bought 4 new Legend Brewery brews today which i’ll share reviews on GTHC day!!

The Eyes have it...

Lighting the fuse at Barebottle in Santa Clara.

What a zoo.

Barebottle Mosaic Microgreens

First their 5oz flight pours are way close to the 8oz mark.

This is a tropical mosaic delight.
A surprisingly super hop “dusty” finish.

For a brewery I’ve never heard of, this is a great start.

Hopefully, no one will be cutting the fuse...

Barebottle Lil Enigma

The enigma is whether or not I like it.

Not a bad beer. Definitively different from the mosaic.

Barebottle Tropical Gummies

Ooooo....this is a new/fruit hop lover’s dream.

Juicy, juicy.

Barebottle Lil Enigma

The enigma is whether or not I like it.

Not a bad beer. Definitively different from the mosaic.

Definitely different than The Enigma night club in Raleigh.

Barebottle Amarillo Dust

Interesting to side by side with the Mosaic.

Mosaic wins out, in a close contest.

I know my palate is not the sharpest, these two beers are very similar.

Barebottle Tropical Gummies

Ooooo...this is a new/fruit hop lover’s dream.

Juicy, juicy.

I'm settling for these as a snack tonight:

Barebottle Citrus Shakes

Winner, winner empanada dinner!!!!

Hazy milkshake IPA.
Smells like grapefruit, tastes like an orange julius.

Woo! 🍻

Barebottle Amarillo Dust

Interesting to side by side with the Mosaic.

Mosaic wins out, in a close contest.

I know my palate is not the sharpest, these two beers are very similar.

I'd drink either in a single hop beer, or, as a two hop creation. They're both very juicy, fruit-forward varieties.

Barebottle Citrus Shakes

Winner, winner empanada dinner!!!!

Hazy milkshake IPA.
Smells like grapefruit, tastes like an orange julius.

Woo! 🍻

Haven't seen many milkshake IPAs recently. Maybe they were a fad for 2018-19.

Planning on another flight tonight?

Overall ranking for Barebottle so far:

Citrus Shakes
Mosaic Microgreens
Tropical Gummies
Amarillo Dust
Lil Enigma

To be fair, no losers on the list.

Lil Enigma was less so with food, and perhaps unfairly judged above.

I tried to be selective with my choices given there are at least 15, maybe 20 beers on tap.

If they were stingy with their pours, I’d consider another flight.
Given their generosity, I may have to be selective about further tastes.

Hopefully, no one will be cutting the fuse...

Hopefully that only happens in a different thread. 🤪

I loooooooove a good milkshake IPA.

I agree they seem to have been a flash in the pan.
