Cypress Brewing Company

16 ounce can in an IPA glass. Fresh.

Dusty orange color with a 1-plus F white cap that holds up and leaves sticky lacing.

Grapefruit forward aroma with some orange family citrus notes.

Flavor follows; grapefruit juice and peel.

Juicy medium body. Citrus hop bitterness. Some sugar, too.

It lives up to its grapefruit name.

puckery, sweet and sour. Grapefruit come to the forefront; the juicy balances pretty well with the hop bitterness. maybe a touch too sweet, but certainly tasty and enjoyable.

FEEL:
puckery, a little astringent, medium body, acidic, tacky


I've only had a few samplings from this brewery over the last few years, but there are some (like this one) that show some major promise. Not perfect, but a lot to like.

Pours the color of grapefruit juice with a thick white head. Aroma is strong citrus/grapefruit. Taste follows with very present grapefruit and some hop floral bitterness. Feel is good, nice mouthfeel and good body. Overall it's a grapefruit IPA that looks good and tastes fine.
