Absolute Truth

Absolute Truth from Rorschach Brewing Co. is a burlier relative of their Truth Serum IPA. The chonky cousin is an 8% double-dry hopped double IPA. The Torontonian ale comes in 355mL cans, from which it emerges a hazy orange colour with a thick blanket of off-white head. A little bit of sediment in the bottom of the glass, but nothing all that distracting.

Absolute Truth has mild citrus aromatics, as well as a puff of tropical sweetness. Compared to its scent, Absolute Truth’s flavour is considerably more robust, but has a similar profile, with elements of sweet OJ, tropical fruit, and a touch of vanilla.

I thought Absolute Truth was a pretty tasty little offering, though I’d have liked a bit more bitter oomph. The beer is brewed with wheat and oats, which contribute to a lovely smooth texture, and helps to effectively conceal the alcohol content.
