    Round 2, off the plane and at the hotel in Scottsdale - picked up 60 degrees in the trade from MN to AZ. Bawitdaba!!!

    And the Mother Road Lost Highway, a black IPA out of Flagstaff with a really nice hoppy/smoky thing going on is cranking the Bawitdaba level up to 12. Take it away, Bob.....

    New Beer Mail IPA!

    [​IMG]

    Courtesy of @GetMeAnIPA Thank You Sir! This is a tasty IPA!

    This has West Coast written all over it! Huge ass aroma of Floral and under ripe Mango. Taste is super dank of floral, a kiss of tangerine pith and mangos. Simple pale malts sweeten the hops just a bit allowing the Hop Oils to shine. This finishes dry and bitter with lingering tangerine and mango in the aftertaste. The body is light with so-so carbonation.

    Overall: This is a winner for me! One of the most drinkable Hop Bombs on the market. The bitterness isn't enamel removing, but it's close! This beer really shines the Mosaic hop verity. It's a complex little hop loaded with fruity and floral flavors that got my Hop Bones shaking! I now want to see if some Orange Kush or Mango Kush can compliment this beer...that's for another Website though :stuck_out_tongue:. This brew is recommended!

    Grade: "A"

    Musical Narration:



    @GetMeAnIPA looks like I might have to hit you up for another trade soon my man!

    Good, but it's not exactly smooth. The hops are pretty forward, and not just bitterness...but aroma/flavor as well.

    Thinking back, this might have been one of the first craft brews I ever had.

    Nothing special, but malty and easy drinking.

    Operation Cellardive beer II. An Old Rasputin XII also from 2009. I really do need to keep better tabs on what I'm cellaring.

    I heard that Grigori Rasputin was a huge fan of Joy Division as am I. So enjoy.

    I was going to grab an IPA out of the fridge and then this Geico commercial came on.



    I do admit, it is catchy.
