Great Lakes Brewing Company Great Lakes IPA
What the brewers say
“A dry-hopped, easy-drinking American IPA.”
What our panel thought
“Hints of cucumber and orange marmalade mingle within the pine and dank notes to create a compelling aroma. The sip brings wet grass and malt-soaked tea, hints of citrus and fruit, and a firm, enveloping bitterness. A bit thin to deliver the full package; the mild malt character and dialed-down intensity temper it a bit too much.”
What our editors thought
“Very light—classic with a soft bitterrness and touch of round mouthfeel. Citrus and forest notes in the aroma and flavor are very light. Minimal in expression without sacrificing character.”
