Here is another Burial Beer with a long name. This beer is a collaboration with Charlotte’s Resident Culture Brewing Company. This is Beyond The Reimagination of The Extraterrestrial Occult. This West-Coast IPA is 7.2% ABV and is mashed with pils. Double-dry hopped with lots of Strata and time-matched with Amarillo, Superdelic, Citra, and Strata CGX, This IPA pours a deep gold with a two-and-a-quarter white head. The beer’s aroma is hoppy, bitter, piney, and a bit of fruit. The flavor of this IPA is hoppy, woody, piney, and there is some fruit. The mouthfeel is on the high side of medium. This beer finishes with a bitterness and some citrus notes. Then you get an aftertaste of bitter, hoppy wood and citrus. This is a west-coast style IPA that I give a B-. The flavors are on the lighter side, and they should be a little more pronounced. I would like to have more citrus fruit flavors. But it’s not terrible, I would have this again, and so should you. Please stay safe, be kind to everyone, and remember to enjoy responsibly! Cheers!

West Ghost IPA from Sierra Nevada Brewing Company is a FOMO limited-release beer. My father purchased it from their brewery in Mills River, North Carolina. This IPA is 7.2% ABV and has Magnum, Idaho 7, Citra, and Amarillo hops. This beer also has Two-Row, Pale, and Carapils malts. This IPA is a throwback to a time before all the hazy IPA crazy. This beer pours a golden color with a three-finger big white head. The head is slow to fade into decent lacing. The aroma is hoppy, with orange zest, pine, and bitterness. The flavor is fruity with citrusy oranges, bitterness, hoppy, and it’s piney taste. This beer has brightness to its flavor. The mouthfeel is on the lighter side, but I don’t think I would call it a light or medium-feeling beer. This IPA comes to a bitter finish with some oranges. Then you come to a fruity, bitter aftertaste of pine flavor. West Ghost IPA is a classic West Coast IPA. This beer is an A. It is a sneaky beer because it doesn’t feel like a 7.2% ABV beer when you drink it. But I do recommend West Ghost IPA. It has a classic flavor. Please stay safe, be kind to everyone, and remember to enjoy responsibly! Cheers!

Here is another beer with a long name from Burial Beer. This beer is Experiential Projections Derived From Transcendental Thought, This beer is a West Coast-style IPA. This beer is 7% ABV.

This beer is from Burial Beer in Asheville, North Carolina, and has a long name like most of the beers from Burial. This one is Cognitive Indifference Towards Something More Fulfilling. This West Coast-style IPA is double dry-hopped with Grungiest, Centennial, Strata, and Citra Cryo. This IPA is 7% ABV. This beer pours a thicker yellow color with a two-and-a-quarter white head. The aroma of this IPA is Fruity, citrusy, bitter, and with a light sweet note. The beer’s flavor is citrusy, smooth, creamy, bitter, and hoppy. The hoppy level is not too high so the bitterness is not overwhelming. But the bitterness is there. Then this long-named beer finishes with a bitter citrus fruit flavor and some bitterness. Then you come to an aftertaste of grapefruit and orange bitter notes. This was more like a traditional West Coast-style IPA and that made it more drinkable, even for 7% ABV. I would give Cognitive Indifference Towards Something More Fulfilling an A+. I could not see this beer being any better. So that means you should go and drink this beer. Please stay safe, be kind to everyone, and remember to enjoy responsibly! Cheers!
