Brew2 + Brew3 Tasting

16 oz Brew2 mixed with 24 oz Brew3 (+1 oz soda water)


ABV: ~4.5?%
IBUs (calculated): 180
IBUs (observed): ~90 (above Brew1 but less than Brew2)

Aroma: Cherry, hint of vanilla banana, slight musty, sweet
Hops: Citrus, pronounced pine
Yeast: light
Texture: average
Finish: sweet on tongue, dry
Duration: long (60 seconds, dry)
Medium bitter

Overall:8

90% Right IPA - alcohol is decent, could be higher and mustiness shouldn't be there (my guess is contamination from one of the plastic bottles -- can't remember if I sanitized the 40 oz bottle; didn't sanitize the 16oz bottle for holding drinking beer and let it sit in the fridge for over a day)
