Our boy, Miracle Mike, represents the good we hope to do with the Clown Shoes Minor Miracle Fund. A percentage of the profits from this juicy, sessionable IPA will be used to help real people (and maybe a puppy or two).

Bottle - Lots of fresh pine and grapefruit, with a sweet caramel backbone. Cloudy copper with a thin beige head. Tastes just as it smells whit have very light bitterness. Well balanced and leaning towards sweetness, a very easy drinking IPA.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a hazy golden body with a one finger white foamy head gently clings and forms valleys, some carbonation is seen rising, some really nice foamy clingy lacing appears.
The smell had some hops, malts, but combined and not really showing too much.
The taste was balanced through hops and malts, but average.
The palate was about a light to medium, sessionable, smooth and slightly crisp, citrusy aftertaste and finish.
Overall, I’d have it again fresh if given the opportunity.

A rather nice looking beer - light copper with a moderate haze - highly effervescent, with a thick, well sustained head, about a finger or two thick - aroma is bursting with sweet tropical fruits (citrus, mango, papaya), but with a balancing, peppery and woody bitterness - creamy body, moderate carbonation - flavor is much drier than the aroma suggests - lightly bready, a light dusty yeast note - peppery and citric hol flavors accompany moderate bitterness from the middle through the finish - decent, but kind of a let down given the appearance and aroma.

From a 355ml bottle on 20/6/2013. Pours a relatively clear golden with a smallish to medium head. Has a moderate but nice floral, fruity aroma. In the mouth, you get mild caramel malt, lots of sweet fruit and orange marmalade, followed by a firm, slightly tangy and peppery citrus hop finish. The body and carbonation are medium. This is relatively constrained by IPA standards but is well balanced, well made and very enjoyable.

Pours a crystal clear medium golden color with a decent white head that persists for a bit before leaving a fair amount of lace on the way down. Smells of earthy citrus hops with a solid bready caramel malt to back it up. Solid sweet sugary malt background never dissipates balancing the earthy citrus a bit too much. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet slick mouthfeel. Not a bad IPA, certainly nothing flawed here, but just a bit boring in today’s market.
