Cold brew coffee adjunct settles to oily coffee finish that lacks creamy assertiveness and overall depth. In the midst, chicory coffee, dark chocolate and espresso tones given slight lemon twist before picking up charcoal hop sear.

LORD HOBO ALOHA FROM NEW ENGLAND COCONUT MILKSHAKE NEIPA
Semi-sharp citrus bittering gains tangy mango and pineapple salting for subdued coconut milking of loosely-defined murky golden milkshake IPA. Instead, label this as a bold tropical-fruited New England IPA as its creamy vanilla froth gets depleted by the same yogurt-soured guava, gooseberry and green grape tartness many New England IPA’s promote. A viscous medium body with piney hop oiling and floral hibiscus nuances hiding beneath its gluey tropical surface.
LORD HOBO DOOM SAUCE BLACK DOUBLE IPA
On tap at Ambulance, bold flagship Boom Sauce given coffee-driven black malt roast to coerce orange-candied tartness and sappy pine resin above earthen oats-flaked spelt base.
LORD HOBO FREEBIRD ALE
Easygoing golden ale nestles muted floral citrus spicing with sugary pale malting to its soft biscuity base. Resinous wood-dried Simcoe/Amarillo hop pungency stays mild.
LORD HOBO ANGELICA HAZY IPA
On tap at Morris Tap & Grill, dry orange yellow-hazed NEIPA brings sharp lemony grapefruit zest and orange-desiccated peach and pineapple tartness to buttery pale-malted bready bottom. Dank grassy hop resin soaks up sweet ‘n sour fruiting at the finish.
LORD HOBO GODMOTHER IMPERIAL STOUT
Creamily fudged coffee-burnt black chocolate malting and bitter Blackstrap molasses syruping disrupted by weedy earthen compost soiling. Tarry tobacco-charred hop musk adds to the bitterness while distant brown-sugared dark cherry, fig and date notions nosedive in silken treacly setting.
LORD HOBO ANGELICA NEW ENGLAND WHEAT
Beautiful floral fruited waft emanates from zesty IPA-inspired wheat ale moderation. Brisk lemony yellow grapefruit tang picks up subtle green grape tannins and mild juniper-licked piney hop bittering above buttery biscuit base. Tertiary pineapple, peach, guava and mango tropicalia reinforce dazzling citric spritz.
LORD HOBO CONSOLATION PRIZE IMPERIAL IPA
On tap at Plank Pizza, ‘surprisingly mellow’ Imperial IPA places sweet tropical fruiting and mildly creamed sugar malts above toned-down piney hop musk. Juicy pineapple, navel orange, tangerine, mango, nectarine, honeydew and peach tanginess suppresses distant lemondrop souring. Viscous honey-spiced fruiting gains candied coating over time while spelt-grained pilsner malting provides soft, but effective, backbone.
LORD HOBO BOOM SAUCE IPA
On tap at Growler & Gill, admirable medium body ‘blankets’ lemon-candied orange, pineapple, peach and mango tang with grassy-hopped pine resin. Mild floral bouquet and dainty malt sugaring sweeten resilient tropical fruiting.
LORD HOBO GLORIOUS GALAXY PALE ALE
On tap at Growler & Gill, ‘elegant’ lemon-dropped grapefruit and pineapple tropicalia gains gentle floral bouquet to contrast dank herbal peppering. In the distance, candied peach-mango-tangerine tang plays possum.
LORD HOBO HOBO LIFE SESSION IPA
On tap at Julian’s, sessionable India Pale Ale brings mild lemon-peeled orange rind bittering, sharp pine-hopped juniper berry influence and wafting floral daub to lightly spiced biscuity pale malting. Tertiary grapefruit, peach, nectarine, pineapple and mango illusions add juicy tangent. In the can, crisply clean Citra-hopped orange and grapefruit tanginess embittered by sticky pine hop bite and lacquered wood respite.
