Overall Impression:
This is an excellent IPA from California! This beer should go over well with Newbeez that do not have an aversion to hops.
I had this beer on cask previously at Grey's Lodge Pub.
ReplyDeleteOn cask it was lower in carbonation, more floral, had a richer creamier mouthfeel, was a little warmer, and it also had a yeasty funkiness to it. Overall, I liked it better on cask.
