DDH IPA Series 17
Tupps Brewery

 

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a lightly hazed orange-golden amber color with a one finger head of fluffy white foam. The head fades rather fast leaving just a trace of lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma of the brew is super sweet with tons of tropical fruits of pineapple and a bit of papaya. Along with these smells comes a decent showing of orange and a good showing of melon and a doughy smell. Overall the aroma is sweet and fruity and massively inviting.
Taste – The taste begins with a very bready and doughy malt taste with tons of sweet fruit flavors. The fruit flavors are heaviest of a papaya and pineapple mixed with some flavors of orange citrus and a touch of mango. As the taste advances some flavors of more fruit come to the tongue with a decent showing of melon as well as some flavors of a herbal hop and a bit of grass. The herbal hop gets more and more potent and is joined by a little bit of a vegetal taste to leave one with a sweet and fruity taste with a nice tasty and easy drinking taste.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is somewhat thicker with a carbonation level that is normal. For the mix of flavors, the feel is great and makes for a nice easy sipping brew.
Overall – A nice and tasty brew. I don’t know if I would consider it an IPA, but regardless the taste is very good and makes for a nice one to try if you get the chance.

Hazy and juicy looking with a fair head. Has only a slight hit of citrus aroma. Couldn’t smell anything until after I tasted it. Taste is mildly hoppy and fruity. Rather light for it’s style, but a good beer. No bitterness but a smooth and creamy texture. Some will find this an excellent brew. Try it y’all. On tap at What’s On Tap, NRH.
