Pours a light copper with an off white head

Smells of flowers tropical fruit and slight bread grain

A nice hit of tropical fruit floral notes and bitter herb. Ends with a slight hit of bread grain

On tap at the brewery.

The thing is, this was actually a good beer, it just wasn't a good IPA. Bruneau is apparently a new and relatively unknown hop variant from Idaho that lends a citrus (though I thought I got more pine) flavor. The beer was REALLY malty, and actually extremely caramelly, like I don't think I've ever so distinctly tasted caramel cubes in a beer more than in this. But it wasn't malty in an "IPA is too old" way, just in a maybe "mistaken recipe" way? So I guess is what I'm saying is, if the beer wasn't hopped like an IPA, the base beer would have made a great amber or even barleywine, but for a beer labeled as an IPA, the malt profile was just way too heavy.
