Mos Def IPA
Long Ireland Beer Company

 

Decanted from a 16 oz (473 ml) can into a conical pint glass; canned on 07/06/20.
A: Pours a very hazy, amber color with orange highlights, a foamy, one to two finger, light wheat colored head, modest retention, and decent lacing.
S: Aromas of pineapple, caramel, and tangerine.
T: Semidry. The palate follows the nose, but now more white grapefruit and pine.
M: Medium bodied with excellent carbonation and an odd refreshingness.
O: Quite a delicious American IPA.

 

A golden amber color with semi-clarity and a fast head of white bubbles. A subtle nose of light citrus hops. Hoppy and tangy fruit notes hit upfront on the first few sips. A rather clean flow and a subtle bitter finish. Nice fruit tones of melon, grape, and tangerine. A slight malt build on the finish with additional notes of resin and pine. A light/moderate body that drinks dry.

Overall, not bad but not that great either. It's rather drinkable with decent flavors. I just don't love it.

 

 

Pours clear, gold in color with 1/4 inch head. Taste is white grape, peach and chardonnay. Light bodoed, bitter with moderate carbonation. Makes for a solid ipa.

 

Super nice IPA from Long Ireland featuring Mosaic and Centennial hops - whatta great combo - medium gold color, few fingers of white head, very faint haze... Nice showcase for the hops - smooth as can be melange of soft fruit and gentle pine, melded impeccably... light and fluffy feeling, moderate bitterness keeps the sweetness at bay - despite the NEIPA craze and the unfiltered haze, this beer balances "west" and "east" coast hop elements with grace and style... Very drinkable, very flavorful... I'm going big on this...
