Brewery : Hidden River Beer : New World/ Retrospect Style : IPA / India Pale Ale Variance : None

10 / 10

Absolute fucking perfection. Seriously, when I first heard about these guys I had no idea what to expect because I really don’t know much about PA breweries especially in the bumblefuck regions but these guys blew me away. I got the chance to taste 6 of their incredible brews while visiting their haunted house of a brewery and honestly, every beer I tasted was better than the last and I couldn’t have been happier that I got to take this one home with me to review. Also, I hope you didn’t take the whole “haunted house” thing the wrong way because their brewery is fucking rad and every room feels like you’re entering a completely different facility so I’d highly suggest a trip out to Douglassville, PA just to visit these guys. Seriously, there is nothing else to do in Douglassville but if it makes you feel better, I’ll meet ya there! Anyways, this beer is bonkers good starting with some peach and tropical fruit flavor with a light mouthfeel and soft sweetness before a mild acidity mixes in sticking true to the style with some smooth citrus and even more peach goodness before ending with some pine and resin and tropical deliciousness that literally inhibits you from putting your glass down for more than a second. This beer seriously kicks ass and is as close to perfect as it gets and honestly rivals just about every other hazy beer I’ve ever tasted which may sound like a pretty bold statement because it fucking is. I can almost guarantee you that Hidden River will become a household name in no time and seeing that they’ve only been around for 2 years, I expect huge things to come from these guys real soon and I can’t wait to be there for it. Newbies may want to hold off on this for now but you experienced drinkers of the world: Travel, trade, or do whatever you have to to taste this ASAP!
