A good IPA

Courtesy of Tim and his travails in VA. Canned 4/27/2021. Coming in 6.8%, pouring a murky orange (think pineapple orange juice) with a one finger white head that quickly dissipated. Aroma of melon /citrus. Maybe some wheat. Can you actually smell wheat? Taste is predominately a variety of citrus and tropical fruit and perhaps some blueberry. Only mild hints of the pine notes mentioned on the can. The feel is smooth, a slight bitter twinge of carbonation at the finish. Overall a solid offering.

Drinking this at The Three Roads Brewing Company in Beautiful downtown Farmville Virginia.
Poured from a tap into a pint glass.
Smells lightly bready, grapefruit, orange.
Taste follows the nose nicely. As you drink it, less grapefruit and more orange on the palate.
Mouth feel is medium for the style with a nice creamy finish.
Overall this seems more like a NEIPA than a classic IPA.
Sessionable for sure and I might order again.

 

 

 

L: Had this beer on-tap at Third Street Brewing Company, poured into a pint glass. Had an orange-yellow color and a cloudy consistency. There was an inch of foamy, fairly long-lasting head. Very good lacing.

S: A sweet aroma of hops, malt, and some light fruits.

T: Tasted of a moderate amount malt (mostly noticeable in the finish), a good shot of hops (not overpowering), a surprising amount of citrus fruit (orange, in particular), and lightly sugary quality. The flavor here is much hoppier than I expected, but it works well with the other elements. Sweet and tasty.

F: A well-carbonated beer with a smooth finish. Medium-bodied.

O: On the whole, this is quite a well done brew. Easy to drink.
