What the brewers say
“An American ale yeast brings out the lush notes of citrus fruit inherent in this hops-forward style before tapering to a clean, dry finish. It’s an American IPA for lovers of American IPA, yet crafted with the same painstaking attention to detail that’s a Belgian hallmark.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Blood orange with a touch of lemon, earthy, piney, and grassy. The hops aroma is smooth, with no rough edges. Bready with a slight toasty malt.”
Flavor: “Blood orange character really comes through in the flavor emphasized by moderate-plus sweetness from the malt. The grassy notes are more restrained than in the aroma. Bitterness is moderate to high and a bit pithy, but balances the sweetness fairly well. Malt is simple with a touch of toasted complexity.”
Overall: “The blood orange is cool. The blend and balance between hops flavor and bitterness was smooth. Some complexity in the hops fruit notes kept it interesting. Bright and clean, classic pine and citrus IPA. Give me a pint, and I’ll drink it right up.”
