Getting My Beer On With Nowhere In Particular Batch 021

Nowhere in Particular Promiscuous Ale Project is located in Dayton, Ohio, and Batch 021 is their Double Dropped IPA brewed with red raspberries, lemons, and Enigma hops. The ABV on this brew is at 6% and has an IBU of 40. So what this turns out to be is a fruity IPA that they also call, The Ol’ Razzle Dazzle. It is also one that they say will only be brewed once and then it’s gone, which they do with just about all of their beers. I must say I did find it an interesting beer, it was more fruitier and sour than I expected with a good refreshing quality. Both the raspberry and lemon do come through rather easily, and there is a layer of acidity along with the tartness of it. And of course being an IPA, there is still some bitterness and a drying quality as well. I don’t know how much was made or how long it will be around at this point, but if you are a fruit beer and IPA fan then this may be a beer for you. Check out the video to see and hear more on this one, and if you have had it then drop a comment below about what you thought. Distribution for the brewery includes Kentucky, Georgia, Michigan, and Ohio.
