Beer Review: Cellarmaker Cosmic Noon
Cellarmaker Brewing Company has once again delivered an exceptional experience with their Cosmic Noon, a 7% ABV West Coast IPA that perfectly balances technical precision with bold, complex flavors.
Appearance and Aroma
The pour yields a remarkably clear, crisp body that invites you into the glass. The experience begins with a bright, welcoming aroma dominated by fresh, vibrant stonefruit notes that set the stage for the hop profile to come.
Flavor Profile
The beer truly shines on the palate, where a sophisticated blend of Strata, Nectaron, Krush, and Centennial hops creates a masterful depth of flavor:
-
- Grapefruit: Crisp, zesty citrus notes provide a classic West Coast foundation.
- Sativa: A unique, earthy, and intriguing character that adds a layer of depth often missing in standard IPAs.
- Dark Berry: Rich, jammy undertones that contrast beautifully with the brighter citrus elements.
Cosmic Noon is a testament to the art of the West Coast IPA. It is meticulously crafted, offering a sharp, clean finish that remains incredibly flavorful from the first sip to the last. This is an essential pour for those who value clarity, balance, and a complex hop narrative in their beer.
