A- Pours a light copper color with an off white two finger lacing head.
S- Immediate citrus notes with a malty biscuit undertone. Not too much complexity in hop smell.
T- A nice burst of citrus and hop bite that finishes a little too fast. Not enough malty undertones to accompany the hops and abv
M- Great mouth feel. Nice micro bubbles and velvety texture.

O- A good IPA. I would consider this more of a session IPA than a true "heavy hitter." There needs to be a better malty backbone when the hops dissipate.

Lagunitas IPA is in my opinion one of the most balanced ipas out there. Really tasty.
It has a nice appearance, smell, and taste. Very drinkable and at an affordable price, you can't beat it! This was my first beer from lagunitas and certainly not the last one.
