Seattle’s Elysian Brewing Company is rolling out its newest beer, Full Contact Imperial Hazy IPA, and on Friday last week I received a six-pack of cans from the company to sample it. It’s an expansion to the brewery’s “Contact” family (you can read my review of Contact Haze here), and a third one is coming. Details from the PR email:

Created with a hop combination including Centennial, Simcoe and Strata, Full Contact invites drinkers to a bittersweet initiation that few can resist. Cloaked in a semi-translucent haze, Full Contact features a unique fruit-forward flavor, connecting drinkers to a tangent of wistful memories through notes of tangerine, cream soda and fresh honeydew, along with floral and slightly resinous aromas.

Full Contact, which is rolling out nationwide in 6-pack cans and on draft, joins Contact Haze as a member of Elysian’s Contact family. Also joining the Contact family later this year is Altered Contact (6.8% ABV), a Tart IPA which offers a refreshing alternative to the usually generous hop-forward flavors of the style. A Trilogy Pack featuring all three beers in the Contact Family will be available in March 2021.

I’ll get a review posted for it soon.
