Tryanuary 2024: Brew by Numbers – Blood Orange (0.5% ABV)

Hello, and welcome back to the Eternal Hoptimists,

Sam is back again checking out this interesting Blood Orange AF tipple from Brew by Numbers.

  1. Name :  Blood Orange
  2. Brewery: Brew by Numbers
  3. Hops : Citra & Centennial
  4. Grain :  Barley, Maize & Oats
  5. Aroma : Zest orange notes, with a twist of hops and freshly cut grass.
  6. Appearance : Cloudy dirty lemon in colour, with a tight white head when poured.
  7. Body : Thin bodied, high carbonation with a good head retention.
  8. Taste : Quite a mild orange flavour given the taste, quite medicinal in flavour with a mild hop throughout.

I thought this was going to be the one. I love a good blood orange beer. But alas, this was a little disappointing for me. Its quite medicinal and grassy, and the orange flavour was thin at best. I have definitely had worse, but I’ve had better too.

Sam’s overall rating: 3.0/ 5.0
