Had on tap as part of a flight at Blue Monk. Part of a series, this one was apparently brewed for Belgium Comes to Cooperstown.
Pours a golden/orangeish. A nice, but slightly muted aroma of citrus hops and Belgian yeast. The flavor continues in much the same vein, with floral flavors also pushing their way in It's less of a Belgian IPA than others more true to the style- more of an American IPA with a slight Belgian twist to it (the trappist yeast, maybe?) Very light carbonation.
The beer is insanely drinkable, I could see putting back 2 or 3 of these no problem at all. Nothing absolutely off-the-wall incredible about this beer, just solid and very drinkable. I don't know the exact ABV, but it was probably in the 5-6 range.
I look forward to seeing more from this brewery- Frank and Rutherford B. Haze were great- this wasn't as good as Frank, but better than Rutherford. I still have a growler of The IPA to crack- I think that one might top all of the other CBW beers I've had.
What does WYHIWYG mean? What you hear is what you get?
