Smoky Run
The Phoenix Brewing Company

Clear amber body; excellent carbonation presence; head starts fairly thick then settles into a thin yet lasting cap of fairly creamy white foam; partial sheets and rings of foam stick to the glass. Smell starts with a decent bit of tropical fruit notes then fades rapidly. Excellent tastes; light, biscuit-like malt base with a light sweetness and moderate hop bitterness overall; clean. Medium body; crisp with a delicate partial sweetness at first; delivers a slightly dry finish.

This is a simple yet ultimately satisfying west coast styled IPA. It brings a nice, balanced and subtle complexity to the palate.
