IPA
Taylor Brewing Company

I don't want to be so negative, but man this beer was not good. It was very unusual for an IPA. Copper/Brown color was darker than most IPA's, No hop aroma to speak of. The smell was that of the dirty beer lines mostly. Taste was not bad, not good. Not much hops detected at all. I drank it, but it was the worst IPA I have had. Another gentleman at the bar was having the same problems, and even asked to make sure he had indeed gotten the IPA? I know someone took the time to brew this beer and I am trying to be respectful, but I would not order this beer again.

This IPA was a nice bronze with a decent head and some lacing. Good looking beer.

The beer had a nice hop nose, but it seemed to be a bit on the light side (no real citrus or pine notes).

I expect more bite on my IPAs. This was more like a pale ale. Yes there is hops, but they are to understated. Beer did not ever go out of balance as it warmed, but the hop taste never notched up either.

The mouthfeel was harder to judge. It was thin, but the beer was also very soft almost like a mild bitter. Drinakbality would be great if it was labeled a Pale Ale, but for an IPA it is just ok.
