A Juiced Up Juicy J Juicer

Too much juice for Juice!

There’s Juice Newton, everyone’s angel of the morning, or OJ “The Juice” Simpson running through an airport. Dr. J and MJ both had some juicy moves, and then there’s our old buddy JT trying to plead a case at the bar. But you will never, ever run into anyone juicier than Juicy J the Juice Man and his Juice Weasel.*

There’s never too much juice for Juicy J the Juice Man.

Trying not to be outdone by Juicy J, Macsot has created this Juicy IPA not in his image, but with his image. They tell us this brew is “unapologetically juicy”, and let me tell ya, they ain’t lyin’.

A hazy OJ pour, with a juiced up bright white head. You won’t be surprised to hear that this smells juicy, citrus fruit salad juicy. And juicy it is. No real hops or bitters, just a citrus mix of juice with a soft mouthfeel. There is a bit of a dank finish driven by a juicy heavy duty purée percolating through this pint.  You better be a big-time juicy brewski fan to take this one on. The big swig test has me begging for mercy due to juice abuse.

Just like Jim Carrey,* this brew goes over the top on purpose. But no apologies expected since we already know that this brew is unapologetically juicy.

*Editor’s Comment: Juice (Judith Kay) Newton had a number 1 hit with her 1981 single “Angel of the Morning”. Before OJ had his legal troubles he was running through airports as a spokesperson for Hertz rent a car. Dr. J (Julius Irving) introduced us to the dunk from the free throw line, a move that would make MJ (Michael Jordan) into Air Jordan. Juicy J the Juice Man was a Jim Carrey character on the sketch show In Living Color. It was a take-off on the real Jay Kordich, inventor and promoter of the Jay Kordich Juicer. Neither to be confused with Juicy J the rapper.

Final Rating: Juiced to the Gills at 14 out of 20
