No. 3
has a juicy, fruit-forward aroma that suggests grapefruit bitterness.
It's flavour is packed with tropical notes, built above a dank and
resin-focused bitterness.
The beer works well
enough, although I found it to be a bit too sweet for comfort. To get to
the next level, its bitterness would need an amping up, and its juicy
fruit sweetness a dimming. However, it was still excellently strong and,
incongruously, very easy to drink. Given the sugar content apparent in
this beer, I'd expect it to be a hangover magnet if enjoyed in
significant quantities. However, a can or two go down fluidly and with
few complaints. I like what Collective Arts is doing with its IPAs, and I
found No. 3 to be a pretty solid entry, though not as engaging as some
others in the series.
Rating: 7.0 out of 10.
