An industry pint at the Oliver location. Wow - pretty damned unfiltered looking, I'd say.
This beer appears a super murky, opaque clay mud colour, with one finger of caked, mildly bubbly off-white head, which leaves a near-solid wall of painted lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of orange cream and grapefruit rind, toffee-heavy caramel malt, a twinge of warming alcohol, and further leafy, weedy hops. The taste is fairly bitter, yet muddled citrus pith, a more straight-up bready caramel maltiness, a touch of leafy pine cone laden forest floor astringency, and a hint of metallic alcohol.
The carbonation is generally quite sedate, barely a tic noticeable, the body a decent medium weight, and smooth enough for all those hop esters flitting about. It finishes rather off-dry, the sweetness of the fruity hops bristling against the bitterness, and the caramel malt in a holding pattern.
A pleasant enough IPA, fueled entirely by the Cascade varietal, in all its capable glory. I just wish that they advertised the unfiltered fact up front, so I didn't ask the stupid keg handling questions that I did.
