Poured a hazy and bright copper hue with a one finger foamy white head. There was good retention and lacing.

The smell featured a light resinous hop and sift malt.

Tha e taste was hop driven and softly ctric. A solid round malt did well to support and compliment the hops.

The mouthfeel was typical of the style with a residual hop spiciness.

Overall a bice west coast IPA.

Max’s IPA is characterized by aggressive bittering and a prominent grapefruit rind flavor. It is clear, polished gold with minimal carbonation and abstract lace. The aroma is restrained with a touch of grain husk and distant hop florals.

This one is not for the uninitiated. The bittering pinches the mouthfeel somewhat and cuts through spicy food like the prow of a Baltic icebreaker. Good, but not exactly subtle.
