Brew: Boom Sauce
Brewer: Lord Hobo
Style: Imperial IPA ABV 8%
Boom Sauce pours a hazy amber orange with a strong and diverse hop aroma on the nose. The first tastes place a blend of resinous hops firmly on the palate enveloping the drinker in a citrus laden, fruit filled, piney experience. The hop blend delivers tropical fruit and citrus flavors as well as a bitterness that is balanced by a strong maltiness. Perfect carbonation and a welcome earthiness contribute to the excellent mouthfeel and elating overall experience. The consistency and intensity of Boom Sauce is astounding considering this is an expert blend of 3 other beers – “Ball and Biscuit” “Steal This Can” and “Consolation Prize”. Delivering an altogether original, diverse, and striking bouquet of flavors, every Boom Sauce speaks to its tempered complexity and remains true to its origins and its name as an artful, intense, and expertly crafted blend of great beers.
The New England “Flora” of Brews and Brewers is progressing like crazy and especially elevated these days. As the holidays approach, It is making me crave the time when I’ll return to my homeland and immerse myself in friends, family, and libations imbibed best from the source. Should you have the opportunity check out Lord Hobo in Cambridge, MA or their taproom in Woburn do so… and, of course, if you can find a can, pick one up!
