Ok, so I had enjoyed this one last weekend, I just haven't gotten around to make any reviews until now. It's been a pretty hectic week. Now that the weekend is once again upon us, I can catch up. Believe it or not, I didn't do a lot of drinking this week, so there's not even a lot of beers that I have to review (aside from the backlog..it still exists).
The beer was poured vigorously into a pilsner glass. It has a very appealing deep amber color and I was able to get about three fingers of off-white head out of it as well. Great lacing all over the exterior of the glass. I could detect aromas of malt, floral hops, and citrus hops.
There some malt body to the taste. Instead of citrus hops, I tasted more floral and piney hops. It tastes a little sweeter than some of the IPAs I've had lately. Light bitter aftertaste to finish it off. I found the beer to be medium bodied with moderate carbonation. It's a pretty good beer. It doesn't taste like a true IPA, but I'm not sure if it's because I've had so many DIPAs that my palate is a little skewed. I'd have to put this one between an APA and IPA. Still, APA is your best gateway to IPAs. I think it would do well as a session beer. Think I'm dead on or out of my mind? Let me know.
