Raptor is a term with multiple meanings. It is used in both paleontology and ornithology. In the context of dinosaurs, the word describes a group of medium-sized, carnivorous species, including the Velociraptor. These animals are excellent predators due to their speed, sharp claws, and intelligence. In the bird world, raptor is used as a synonym for the term bird of prey and includes carnivorous species such as eagles, hawks, and falcons. If you look at the ostrich, it definitely shares traits with its dinosaur ancestors, and its diet also includes animal food. However, it is neither a dinosaur nor a carnivore.
We're mentioning him here anyway, because he's the mascot of Blech.Brut's Double New England IPA Radical Raptor, staring from the label with the aggressiveness of a velociraptor. The brew behind this feathered troublemaker is heavily cloudy, grain-yellow, and, with a respectable 7.8% ABV, quite quick-witted. This double NEIPA is dry-hopped with Mosaic, Motueka, and Riwaka hops and is packed to the brim with juicy aromas of tropical fruits, lime, passion fruit, and citrus. The malt trio provides a grippy, almost thick consistency and a full-bodied, smooth base for the fruity hop fireworks.
Dangerously addictive!
