Inside Edge IPA
Wallenpaupack Brewing Company

 

 

Pours a cloudy copper orange with two finger thick, creamy foamy head. Head lingers and leaves a fair bit of lacing. Smell is earthy, piney, with hints of citrus rind. Taste echos the nose on this one. Mouthfeel is moderately carbonated, somewhat thin in body. Finish is bitter but not abrasive.

Poured into a wide mouth, grip shaped goblet: color is straw, slight chill haze, head is off white to very light tan with fine bubbles, head presents 1.5 fingers thick, head remains solid top with frothy and lacing on the glass sides.

Smell is subdued - light pith and pine, earth, light biscuit malt; all very light.

Taste is pithy, earthy, and piney, lighter tropical note; malt is light with maybe some biscuit and toast.

Mouthfeel is moderate carbonation, low/moderate sweetness, moderate/strong bitterness.

Overall - an interesting mix of hops which might benefit from a touch more malt backing, but mouthfeel is on point for the style.

 

 

 

This is a bit of a blend. Looks like a typical WC IPA, light clear brown with a nice head that produced a good lacing. But the aroma was all fruit. The taste is squarely in the WC realm, some pine and malt and a solid bitterness but with distinct stone fruity notes. Medium body with good carbonation. The hop mix on this adds an interesting note to a regular WCIPA
