Alaskan IPA

Alaskan IPAAlaskan Brewing Company, Juneau, Alaska
Style: India Pale Ale
Serving Style: 22 oz Bottle

Aroma: Citrus and pine American hops
Appearance: Light amber/deep gold. Lighter than expected, must be mostly base malts. Fluffy and persistent white head.
Flavor: Grainy malt with very light caramel balanced by pine and citrus hops. Medium-high bitterness and hop flavor is lower than expected and allows the malt to shine through.
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Medium carbonation.
Overall Impression: A solid IPA. Nice malt with lighter than expected hops. I think I have come to expect “greatness” from Alaskan Brewing and this was not “great”. It was just a good IPA. That said, I would certainly have a couple more.
