North High Times
North High Brewing Company

Pours light golden yellow, heavy head and light lacing. Slight hints of cannabis on the nose, but not as over the top as some similarly styled IPAs. Upon the tongue, this beer starts slow. The first note is water, but it does build a bite. No citrus here, just pure bite and dank. Finishes nice, but washes out somewhat. A bit one note, but it’s a decent note. It’s an easy drinker, but nothing to challenging or exciting. Overall a fair effort.

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local Giant Eagle store. It poured a clear golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had floral earthy notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with potpourri and hop spice presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a good beer.

This beer was brewed for High Times. 12oz can poured into a tulip. Pours a light golden with a mild haze but still has some clarity to it; bubbles racing upwards; fluffy eggshell white head that falls leaving great thick retention and sticky lacing. The aromas have a nice blend of citrus and tropical fruit. Pineapple leads the way. Hints of fresh bread and crackers. Malts are there. The flavors basically follow the nose. More pineapple leading the way. Some rubber. Some grapefruit and orange. Lots of fresh grass and herbal notes. More hints of bread and crackers. Nice hop flavors. Solid bitterness. Malts do their thing. Finishes juicy. Alcohol goes unnoticed. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied with moderate carbonation. It's fluffy, smooth and easy to drink.

This is a really nice IPA. This one is brewed with Eureka hops which I don't recall knowing much about, but I really like them based off of this experience. I've been saying that North High is really good with hops, and this is just another confirmation. Well done.
