Description
MAGICAL REALISM from GRIMM is a captivating example of a New England IPA, hailing from the innovative craft beer scene in New York. This brew marries the signature haze and juiciness of its style with an exuberant array of tropical and citrus hop flavors. As you take your first sip, expect a delightful dance of ripe mango, zesty grapefruit, and hints of pineapple, creating a refreshing symphony that is both vibrant and inviting. The smooth, creamy mouthfeel is complemented by a gentle bitterness, which enhances the overall balance and drinkability of this IPA. With an ABV of 6.4%, MAGICAL REALISM is an approachable choice for those who appreciate a well-crafted, flavorful beer without overwhelming potency. Serving this beer at the optimal temperature of around 45-50°F will bring out its complex hop aromas and flavors, ensuring you experience the full spectrum of its character. Pour it into a tulip glass to allow its enticing aromas to concentrate while showcasing its hazy, golden hue and thick, inviting head. This glassware choice not only enhances the aromatic experience but also complements the beer's creamy texture. MAGICAL REALISM pairs beautifully with an array of dishes, making it a versatile addition to any meal. Its tropical notes and balanced bitterness work well with spicy cuisine, such as Thai curry or buffalo wings, cutting through the heat while adding a refreshing contrast. For those who prefer lighter fare, consider pairing it with a citrusy salad or a grilled chicken dish to match the beer's zesty undertones. Whether you're exploring new flavor combinations or enjoying familiar favorites, this specialty IPA from GRIMM promises to elevate your culinary adventures with every pour.

Honestly surprised at how solid this was for what it cost, better than some NEIPAs I paid more for lately. Would grab again if it's still on the shelf.

Glad you spotted the value here. Always trying to keep good options under six bucks for local IPAs.

Didn't seem that strong until halfway through my second can, then it totally snuck up on me. Tastes awesome and goes down easy.
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
Right? This IPA hides its ABV well. If you liked this style, check out Grimm's Lambo Door sometime too. - Dan

Last weekend was warm enough to sit outside, so I poured a can of Magical Realism on the porch. Really hit the spot for sunny spring days, though I'd like it colder next time.
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
Love this one for the first patio weather too. Toss it in the freezer for a bit before your next can.
