4.45/5  rDev -4.1%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5

Appearance: Perfect Golden Amber Color. Nice fine head with convecting carbonation.

Nose: Well put together, some grapefruit but not too bitter. Good sweetness. Nice hop notes, pure and clean. A nice clean IPA caliber of hop presence.

Taste: A good amount of hops that are clean, simple and not overly bitter. A good amount of malt to balance this out. I get some grapefruit, but it's not a bitter bomb. The pine is there also and there is very little alcohol.

Mouthfeel: Some good carbonation, good thickness.

Overall: A really well pieced together APA/IPA. Pushes the APA to it's limit. How an IPA should be put together, thoughtfully. The amount of hops is restrained (instead of just cramming them in for no reason) and it's balanced well by the malt. The bitterness is spot on for me as well and with very little alcohol. Really enjoyed this.

From the bottle, poured into a Bells Tulip, perfect 50th review beer!

Serving type: bottle
