Foothills Seeing Double IPA
Flavor: "Malt sweetness with a syrup like consistency upfront with a medium hop fruitiness. Melon sweetness with a touch of light banana and lemon. Very light on the bitterness only exposing itself at the very end. A bit of cardboard oxidization towards the middle of the sip makes the hops muddled."
Overall: "A pleasant and well made strong beer, though lacking in hop character and bitterness to properly call this a double IPA."
