Sunny Disposition IPA
Bullfrog Brewery

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Had on tap at a local bar. Was severely disappointed in this beer. The beer had a somewhat plasticky taste. I dislikes the beer on first sip, and tried to give it to one of my friends. No one wanted it, and it sat there until after I had consumed insanely hot wings, and needed to cool off my tongue.

I was told that this beer isn't a good representation of what Bullfrog can do, but I won't ever be trying this beer again.

 

 

 

Poured from a tap at the Craft Ale House in Limerick into a standard pint glass.

A: A light to medium golden color with a two finger white large bubble head. Nice full glass lacing.

S: Wow, terrific citrus and tropical fruit nose. Grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, mango and some lemon. A little biscuit malt is detected.

T: The citrus and tropical fruits in this beer are insanely good, very West Coast style. Huge flavors of grapefruit and pineapple couple with some mango and lemon. Sweetness is barely there with some biscuit malt as the finish turns back to the fruity flavors with a bone dry finish. Slightly bitter, but not overly so. Wow, this was terrific.

M: Awesome mouthfeel. No alcohol, nice carbonation, medium body and very, very drinkable.

O: Another awesome IPA by Bullfrog, it amazes me how they keep putting out world class IPAs. This one was a favorite of mine as it had tremendous flavor, but the ABV was low enough to really enjoy a few of them. Fantastic.

 

 

Draft offering at hunger and thirst served in a snifter. The brew appears a clear light copper color with a white cap that fades slow painting spots of lace all over the glass. The aroma is juicy with hops. Some herbal to grassy elements than dank as well. As it warms up there is a citrus zest and rindy aspect that evolves.

This is bitter with herbal and catty flavoring. It has a slight neutral grain sweetness that imparts a very fresh feel. Despite the fresh grain character the brew remains mostly dry yet balanced and easily approachable with effortless drinkable from the light body and modest carbonation.
