Now on with the show…
Ladies and gentlemen this… …is Motley Brew…
Track 1: Brew’s Brothers
-
What they say: “Your newest addiction, this one’s on a mission from God! When the finest darkly roasted European Espresso is blended with luscious undertones of Madagascar vanilla bean cream, further enhanced by a perfect blend of mildly sweet tobacco and notes of delicately rich butterscotch, you’ll be taken for a ride with the most indulgent of flavors.”
-
Smell: Those strange but delicious coffee sweets you grandma used to give you.
-
Colour: Light Amber
-
Flavour: This is a coffee vape. Every coffee vape I have ever had has tasted like throwing up the horns at an altar shaped like Satan’s dirty ring-piece but this is something else!
The simple explanation of this is that it smells and tastes exactly (not a little bit not pretty close but exactly) like a vanilla latte! Real roasted coffee with a sweet but rounded vanilla syrup.
To quote Jake & Elwood It’s 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a dripper of juice, it’s dark… and we’re wearing sunglasses." “Hit it”
Track 2: Old Fashioned R&R
-
What they say: “The finest premium whiskey, a dash of spicy bitters, aromatic citrus notes, and a touch of raw sugarcane highlight this remixed rendition of the classic Old Fashioned. Old school soul; remastered for absolute pleasure.”
-
Smell: Mild lime/citrus
-
Colour: Crystal clear
-
Flavour: I Find this a strange but very tasty combination of two things mainly a slight bitterness (not sourness!) from citrus like you get with cactus drinks and a predominantly authentic sweet flavour of raw sugarcane.
There’s almost a subtle strangely boozy grape soda taste from this too which all together works very well! I would at a guess say they mean a bourbon rather then a real whiskey but it is certainly a great and unusual vape, well worth a go if you are looking for something a little less traditional!
As Bob sager would say “Call me a relic, call me what you will, Say I’m old-fashioned, say I’m over the hill, Today’s Vapin’ ain’t got the same soul, I like that old time rock ‘n’ roll!”
Track 3: Almost Famous
-
What they say: “A recipe from our European tour that always made our hearts sing. Delicious freshly-baked cakes engulfed with warm, wild blueberries and rich praline pecans makes for an exceptional flavor that’s sure to prove unlike any other. A dusting of powdered sugar completes this seductive dessert, one to enjoy on every vape.”
-
Smell: Blueberry muffin batter with chocolate!?
-
Colour: Light amber
-
Flavour: I get a very mild natural baked blueberry, sweet roasted almond with a fairly rich cakey muffin batter thankfully there’s none of the slightly odd chocolate I found while smelling it! The best description of the flavour all around is that it tastes like the heavy cakey smell that hits you when you open the oven door on a fresh batch of blueberry muffins.
This is very rich heavy vape in all honesty its too much for me. It strikes me as damn good as an occasional vape to mix up a rotation but really is too heavy for an ADV I’m sorry I can’t concentrate, Rock stars have kidnapped my son!
Track 4: Froot Fighters
-
What they say: “A delectably sweet and juicy candied melon medley including chilled watermelon, vine-ripened cantaloupe and honeydew plus a few undisclosed recipe treats! Delectable and mouthwatering, this melon felon will leave you breathless in its delicious wake.”
-
Smell: Unashamedly cantaloupe
-
Colour: Deep orange
-
Flavour: Well they got this right! The immediate comparison I would make is to suicide bunny’s madrina but a little sharper and a lot less overpowering.
This is a sharp complex cantaloupe with a slightly sweet almost candied watermelon roundness. The biggest thing is the edge to it which feels a lot more mature and certainly places it on my re-buy list! Worth noting this shines in an RDA but tends to be sharp to almost harsh in a RTA it needs a fair amount of air flow to work properly.
Track 5: Grateful Red
-
What they say: “A mélange of tart granny smith and ripe red delicious apples bathed in a brown sugar glaze, then luxuriously layered with rich, Tahitian vanilla custard. This masterpiece is then crowned with caramelized cane sugar and lightly salted caramel drizzled on top. Behold this decadent pleasure!”
-
Smell: Apple fizzy belt sweets
-
Colour: Clear with a light green tint (uncoloured)
-
Flavour: Its definitely apple but has no semblance to the fruit! This reminds me strongly of those apple schnapps cocktails that you
drank by the gallondefinitely didn’t drink while on holiday in Ibiza.
There is a very much synthetic but pleasant apple flavour with cooked brown sugar and a hint of a light custard. Its a little sweet but it works beautifully in my Cthulhu v1 as it seems to round out the edges and bring out a little more creaminess.
In a dripper it’s a little too sickly the synthetic edge and sheer strength of the apple is overpowering however if you like cheap apple shots or fizzy belt sweets this really is for you! Its a hell of a tripAnd when the day had ended, with rainbow colors blended, Their minds remained unbended, He had to die, Oh, you know he had to die.
Track 6: Pearadice City
-
What they say: “This boldly sweet treat will take you down to pearadise city with the essence of exotic lychee, coupled with the juiciest pears on earth, and then blended perfectly in silky French vanilla bean cream. A sprig of fresh mint finishes this ambrosius brew for a cooling, yet contrasting delight.”
-
Smell: Predominantly green tea!
-
Colour: Clear with a pinkish hue
-
Flavour: This is subtle but so moreish! The predominant flavour for me is a peppermint green tea slightly sweetened with pear and lychee. Really take note that the mint flavour doesn’t have a cooling effect but tastes superb!
Make no mistake don’t expect this to be strong but do expect a well rounded candidate for an ADV! The overall subtlety but clearly definable flavours have put this solidly into my rotation, all I need now is a warm summer evening to truly enjoy it!
Oh won’t you please take me hoooome!
Encore!
Very much EU inspired, these don’t seem to suffer from the sickly sweet flavour US liquids tend towards while some are sweet they avoid that unpleasant artificial sweetener taste. These all around are mature and unusual flavours that really do stand away from the crowd, I really can see pearadice city and froot fighters making their way in to my rotation.
Motley Brew are a very new US premium liquid vendor opening their doors in June 2015 with this six flavour line up, if they can keep this up I would be more then happy to take a blind punt on any other flavours they develop!
It’s 21 USD (18,47 EUR, 13,48 GBP) for a 30ml which is on the high side for me but it’s quality truly does show and I would have to say for these it’s pretty reasonable.
