The Black Bellows Big Buck, the antlered entrepreneur on the can, is grinding and shining, aiming to rake in copious cash, as in mucho dinero, as in not just rich but wealthy. A Big Buck dreaming of big bucks. “Get Rick Qwik” it says on the can. They won’t be making any money giving spelling lessons or competing in Scrabble tourney’s that’s for sure. The only way I know to get rich quick is to work your ass off for 40 years, and then you get to keep half of what you make. That’s rich, as in ha ha rich. You don’t get rich doing beer reviews, that’s for sure.
The Big Buck is on a grind and shine* work regime, whatever that means. Perhaps nose to the grind stone, or is it referring to the daily grind? I guess in modern vernacular it means to work hard, to hustle and to drudge for a quick return. This economic model is foreign to me and quite possibly to anyone with some real bucks in the bank. Enough of the micro-economics lesson for today.
This juicy IPA pours an extra pulp orange juice orange pour, with a bit of a white rind on top of the grind and shine. Hazy and particular,** as in particles in suspension. An aroma of juicy citrus with some hops in the background. This IPA is surprisingly smooth, and not surprisingly very orange juice citrusy. It has a nice full mouth feel with a juicy citrus body, and a citrus fruit slight tart hoppy finish with a bit of fizz on the peach, or orange in this case. The tart conclusion evolved into a mild bitter as the fizz finish faded but unlike Elvis, it never left the building. The citrus body is smooth and quite delicious.
