Today is the 11th and I'm two days behind on my reviews. I had a |
|
minor cold this weekend (sore throat, runny nose, etc.) and I was |
|
unable to think about beer without getting nauseous. Now it's |
|
Monday and I'm on the mends with three unopened beers in the fridge |
|
and some catching up to do! my plan is to continue in order and make |
|
up the missed days by doing two-a-day sometime in the future. |
|
|
|
This beer is from a brewery about 10 minutes from my house that I've |
|
never heard of before. It looks like it was on draft at the Craft |
|
Beer Cellar and they decided to can it and include it in the advent |
|
box. It drinks like a standard west coast double IPA. Very hoppy and |
|
thick flavor. There might be some citrus flavor present, but I'm |
|
still a bit congested from the cold I'm not tasting very much. |
|
Decent overall, but I don't think there's anything here that sets it |
|
apart from every other double IPA on the shelf. |
|
|
|
- Would I buy it again? Probably not. |
|
- How much could I drink in one night? Given it's a very heavy IPA, |
|
probably only a pint. |
