Another IPA
Frost Beer Works

On tap at the Hinesburg public house. This was poured into a tulip. The appearance had a soft hazy burnt orange color with a bar pour’s kind of slim head that dissipated immediately. Lacing speckles the sides nicely. The smell starts off with a sweet to sharp mango leading into a semi-sweet citrus rind. The taste was fully bittersweet taking the citrus to play with a light piney substance. Mango becomes more subtle and leads into a sweet sticky citrus aftertaste and a light sweet citrus to caramel finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. Carbonation seemed a bit under but still allowed a nice bitterness to hit my tongue. Overall, I say this was a pretty good AIPA that I would have again.

 

 

 

 

 

Poured into a pint from a 22 oz. Very hazy orange in color. 1/4 inch head dissipates to nothing very quickly. Very muted citrus, tropical, and dank notes on the nose. Taste is similar to the smell, slight grassiness as well. Subtle bready malt presence. Very mild bitterness and light body for an ipa but works really well. Would make a great summer day ipa

 

 

 

22 oz. bottle purchased at Duncan Donuts in Milton for ~6.00. Poured into glass and shared. Pours an almost perfectly clear light-amber with a soft inch of creamy head. Pleasant but not pungent citrus and pine aromas. Taste is lightly fruity with just a hint of pine and dank, finishing with a very nice balance of soft bitterness. Mouth feel is just right - medium bodied, clean, refreshing. Overall, I liked this a lot, especially as it warmed up a bit. Not as noteworthy as their Some IIPA, but much better than More IPA.

 

Poured from the 22oz bottle into a stemmed tulip.
This beer pours a light amber with nice head two fingers high.
Aromas are pretty standard IPA hoppiness with a touch of alcohol.
Flavors are a balanced and mild blend of hops and malt. Not particularly hop forward.
Mouthfeel was good.
Overall this beer was fine but not memorable. Maybe this is what they were going for when naming it. Nothing wrong here, but nothing particularly noteworthy either.

This was poured into a tulip. The appearance was a semi-hazy bronzed red color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipates within less than a minute. There’s a decent lacing that roams around the glass. The smell starts off with a big burst of citrus hops amplified by a pine bitterness to balance. Extra tropical notes lead in but remain subtle. The taste starts off sweet and leads into a slight bitter, nice and substantial. A light aftertaste of sweet to semi-bitter citrus leads into a sly dry finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it.. Carbonation feels right as an IPA to lead to a decent bitterness over my tongue. Overall, I say this was a really good IPA that I could have again.

 

Batch # 040, dated 10/22/15

Appearance - Pours a relatively dark golden amber with an off-white, half finger head. Fair retention, dying to a thin, broken layer of suds across the top. Lacing is broken and spotty decent stick.

Smell - Grapefruit, pine, a bit of stonefruit pit and light malt sweetness.

Taste - Follows the nose. The first impression I get is stonefruit pit, citrus and pine. A bit of toasted bread. The finish is candied orange and a bit of citrus pith bitterness.

M - Near full in body with moderate carbonation. Goes down relatively easy with a light dryness.

Overall - A bit like their pale, but way better and with significantly more pronounced flavors. Great all-around beer. Is it just Another IPA like it's name-sake? Kinda, but it's a good one.

A bright copper color, with a thin head that dissipates leaving small bubbles and thin lacing.
Smell is of mandarin orange, apricot and some pine. The taste follows - fruity and resinous but not as hoppy as I was expecting. Good balance though and a nice clean finish. Certainly not a hop bomb, but very drinkable.
