AleSmith IPA

4.5/5

AROMA
9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20

22 ounce bottle. Pours hazy amber color with a nice 2 finger white head with very good retention that reduces to a lacing cap that leaves nice lacing. Aromas of caramel, citrus, grapefruit, floral, and pine. Taste of strong grapefruit, with caramel, spice, and pine. Finishes off with a nice clean bitterness and lingering citrus and fruit flavor. Definitely one of the best balanced IPA’s I have come across. Very smooth drinking. A little bit of alcohol warming on the finish. Medium body and carbonation. This is phenomenal, will definitely buy again.

This is incredible. AleSmith makes a ton of good beer. Every one I have had so far has been great. My camera has a hard time focusing some of the time.
