Beasts of Clay

By: Mr. Beer Thirty

“Beasts of Clay” is back on the mound and ready to make some noise for another season as the official beer of the Lincoln Potters. This West Coast IPA from Slice Beer Company steps into the box loaded with Citra, Simcoe, Strata, and a beastly charge of Nectaron Cryo.

Appearance

Beasts of Clay pours a perfectly clear, golden hue.

Aroma

Floral aromas lead the way, hinting at the heavy hitting lineup of orange peel, mango, and passionfruit to come.

Tasting Notes

Crisp and clean on the palate, this one brings notes of dank berry, tropical fruit, and piney resin, all backed by a snappy bitterness.

Mouthfeel & Drinkability

A crisp malt body and a clean, snappy bitterness that doesn’t miss its spot make this one bold, dry, and aromatic, built for sunny afternoons and loud crowds.

Food Pairings

The orange peel, mango, passionfruit, and pine character make this a great match for bold, savory dishes. Try it with:

  • Grilled shrimp with orange glaze, a direct echo of the beer’s orange peel notes.
  • Mango salsa with fish tacos, complementing the beer’s mango character.
  • Passionfruit glazed chicken, tying in the beer’s tropical notes.
  • Sharp aged cheddar, a classic pairing for a hop forward IPA.

Final Notes

Beasts of Clay is a bold, dry West Coast IPA from Slice Beer Company that earns its 4.1/5 by playing ball with a full lineup of orange, mango, passionfruit, and piney resin. Play ball and drink fresh.
