Magnificence is a mighty hazy double dry-hopped double IPA from the gang at Toronto’s Rorschach Brewing Co. The beer comes in 355mL cans and checks in at 8%. It’s an almost milky orange hazer with a thick white head.
The beer is hopped using Nelson Sauvin and this gives it a fragrant juiciness with pineapple and grape notes. The flavour has quite a few white wine elements, and the texture is mellowed by the use of wheat and oats. Bitterness, in a floral/citrus configuration, only really enters the scene in the back end.
Magnificence is a tasty number. The booze is present, but not overwhelming, and the flavour is quite enticing. The white wine touches make for quite a refreshing beer.
Rating: 8.5 out of 10.
