anybody else had this? just picked up a bomber from costco. sour NEIPA. two row, wheat and oats with lactose, grapefruit, blood orange, citra, bru1, vic secret and galaxy. Barbarian (conan?) yeast.
not sure how sour it got but the lactose kept it from being a sharp type of acidity, more like a nice tart sour but still bright flavors. alot of citrus, obviously. decent body but still drinkable. definitely got some hop character, but not like a typical NEIPA. i think i mostly got the fruit additions? very citrusy, with a little bit of a floral or spice character in background.
drank it straight from the bottle so didnt notice haze, clarity, color, etc. was a bit of gunk on bottom that got kicked up. not sure what that was.
stats-
7.2% 49 IBU 18.9 plato, which i think points to about 6P final gravity.
11.6L and "68 AA"?? not sure what that is.
anybody done something similar? would like to get an idea of a recipe to start from here.
