I’m gonna be straight with you. I did not enjoy Pulp Fiction.
I finally got around to watching it five or six years ago, and it just didn’t do anything for me. It’s messy, it’s all over the place, and now I couldn’t even tell you what it’s about.
There, I said it. Bring on the hate. I can take it. [Do we need to talk, Mick? – Editor]
Thankfully, Pacific Pulp Hazy IPA has a plot that I could get on board with. The pulpy haze is real (but it’s still not as opaque as Pulp Fiction).
As for the taste: while Bru-1 hops have given me the impression of fresh and tinned pineapple in other beers, here they remind me of those pineapple lumps – you know, the little chocolate-coated rectangles full of that pineapple-y, marshmallow-y, squoodgy stuff. Except in this beer, instead of that little brick of yellow goodness being coated with chocolate, here’s it’s coated with bitter resin as the Mosaic plays out less of its fruity self and more of its piney side.
So if you manage to find yourself a movie theatre where you can buy a beer, by all means get this beer, but watch something other than Pulp Fiction. Or even better, get someone to give you a foot massage while you drink this, and just comfortably enjoy the silence.†

†Yes, these are Pulp Fiction references. I had to use Google to make them. Why? Because I only saw Pulp Fiction once, and that was once too many. Pulp Fiction sucks.
