Taste:

This beer is hoppy and bitter and piney and sort of grassy. There is a toasted, almost roasted flavor, with a slight citrus hint. The malts weren't very sweet but leaned more on the roasted end, almost like coffee but without the coffee flavor. The aftertaste is bitter and earthy. It lingers strongly for a while after tasting. It is not crisp. This beer lingered on the medium to heavy end of carbonation and had a medium-heavy mouthfeel.

Rating:

This was a good IPA but I usually leave the IPAs to my sister who loves them. I liked it, I just am not a fan of bitter, piney IPAs. If you tend to like piney IPAs you will enjoy this beer.
