| Smell | Smell is dominated by lots of grapefruit, pine and hops. | ||||
| Appearance | Cloudy orange with a big, long lasting head with lots of lacing as it went down. | ||||
| Taste | Red grapefruit, spices and malt well blended with plenty of hops. The hops definitely take center stage, but well balanced with both sweet and bitter. | ||||
| Comments | I was hesitant to try this one because I was told it was a "big IPA" and I'm not quite at the hophead level. But it was fairly smooth and went down easy for an IPA. | ||||

Well, I am a hophead (big time) and I agree with your description of this beer. Definitely a decent IPA, I'd buy it again in a pinch. Would like to try it on tap.
ReplyDeleteMy tastes have changed since I first tried this. It is quite good. I would give it 4 mugs now.
