While this experimental IPA might not send you into different dimensions, the hop character will certainly transport your taste buds through time. We hopped this edition of The Cleveland Experiment with our select Krush, Idaho 7 and Citra.

Pint can poured into a tulip - the beer is gold and bubbly with a thick, white head. Lots of IPA lacing there. Typical IPA hoppy smell, piney, fruity, malty. The grapefruit is noticeable, but it's not overwhelming in terms of fruit. More of a resin burn I would expect from the taste, which I receive in full. Piney, clean, light in body. A solid grapefruit flavor leads to some bitterness, but it's nothing too in your face. Just a quality example of the style from ones that know.

Pale golden, clear, nice head and spotty lacing. Super light citrus aroma. Just smells so fresh. Strong piney and grapefruit, fruity malt base. Dry bitter hoppy finish. Very nice west coast style IPA.

Served in an imperial nonic pint glass
This beer pours pale yellow with a slight haze. It is topped with a few inches of off-white head that leaves spotty lacing.
Resiny aroma.
Piney, west coast flavor but not overly bitter although there is bitterness.
Lighter bodied with an effervescent mouthfeel
Solid IPA. West coast vibe
