21st Amendment: Brew Free! Or Die IPA (American IPA) 7.0%

Drank From: can, poured into a pint glass

This beer is fantastic. It pours dark peach and has great head and retention. The nose is pungent and hoppy. The mouth feel is a crisp medium body that keeps you coming back for more. The taste, however, is surprisingly complex. There is a very heavy maltiness, yet the bitter hops also seem almost dominant. It leaves you wondering which takes precedence. This beer is a little deeper and darker than the typical citrusy or floral IPA. It almost has a black liquorice flavor. This is a solid beer with a heavy malt presence.

My Rating: B+/4.0
