A Note on This Beer

Missed the alert for Toppling Goliath Safety Porpoises? Here’s another shot at it before it sells out!

“They say in the upper midwest there are two seasons: winter and Road Construction” –Toppling Goliath

No matter what kind of construction is going on — outside your window when you wake up, or on the building site across the street as you crack open your first can of the day — it requires noisy, hefty power tools. 

Luckily, today’s massive collab is a power beer from two super squads! It’s set to help you deal with all that racket.

One of America’s foremen of craft beer is Toppling Goliath, a Top 15 Best Brewery of the 2010’s according to Paste Magazine. And, when they recruit the help of some fellow midwesterners for a job, all bets are off. As one of Thrillist’s best breweries in Minnesota, BlackStack adds their signature hoppy goodness — making this tour-de-force so stupendously good it’ll drown out the sounds of that pesky jackhammer across the street.

With a full house of 5 hops, this packed IIPA comes with frolic-through-the-pine-forest aromas and juicy, hazy mango flavors that’ll settle you in to Road Construction season. Citra, Nelson Sauvin, Sabro, Galaxy, and Simcoe Cryo… the whole gang’s here to get the job done.

This brewski’s also a burly utility: with a 7.9% ABV, you’re set and ready with a power tool of your own.

These two know how to make a dang good beer, so strap on your most reliable PPE and get buying before Construction ends and Winter hits us again.

With Tavour, it's easy to beer it forward! Just head over to Tavour.com/gifts to send a gift box or gift card to the craft beer lover in your life. Cheers!

Fruity, citrusy aroma. A bit too fuzzy on the tongue for me. Citrus and mango flavors dominate with a bit of the hoppy bitterness and you can tell it is almost 8%. A bit sour over all. In the end only kind of OK.

Taste is mango and papaya forward. Slight citrus. Creamy feel. Rounds out with a notable but slight hopiness. Great feel, smooth, and juicy hazy IPA. Decisively above average for the style.

This is the best IPA I’ve ever had. That said, it does not taste like an IPA nor has the light citrusy, hoppy consistency of an IPA. It tastes and looks like a tropical smoothie, and that is fantastic. I can’t envision anyone disliking this one. Will order again!

16oz can from Tavour. Milky, hazy straw colored pour, white foamy head, small floaties. Light citrus, fruity aroma, soft tartness. Taste brings grapefruit peel, tartness first, followed by sweetness. Minor floral notes, thick, creamy, full.

Really tasty collaboration. I like most everything about this beer. More bitter and less sweet than a lot of hazy ipas out there. Slightly more “boozy” finish than other Toppling Goliaths that I have tried. Glad I got multiple cans.

Great all around hazy IPA. The mouthfeel is very fuzzy and has lots of fruit on the front end. It finishes with a lot of hops and is surprisingly dry. It’s nothing to write home to mom about, but it is a great beer. I really enjoy Toppling Goliath. However, this one won’t have me running back to the store for more.

I'm not generally a fan of IPAs, I got this one because... how could I say no to Safety Porpoises? With that out of the way, this was surprisingly good, piney and a little citrusy. Easy to drink when really cold, but nothing extravagant. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to get it again, but I'm happy I tried it.
