*****1056****** Apperance: Yellow-Orange, Hazy, Good Head, Retained Head, courser bubbles Aroma: Clementine, Pineapple Taste: Fresh Orange, Juicy, sweet, Pineapple, Fruit cocktail Mouthfeel: No astringency, Full body I will be making this my Flagship beer. The hops are perfect. no reason to change them. ******1318****** Apperance: Yellow, Clear with the slightest haze, head retention, finer/smaller bubbles Aroma: Juicy Fruit, lacking in Aroma Taste: Grapefruit, Fig, Bubblegum (juicy fruit), Honeydew, Sweet with dry finish, alcohol Mouthfeel: meduim, slight astringency like a grapefruit peel Both are very drinkable. 1318 will be kicked first. I feel as if I only drank it more because it was higher in ABV and I wanted to save the 1056 for friends and fam, because its damn good
