The Two Roads interpretation of this emerging beer style naturally takes a road less traveled. Unlike other versions, ours employs an American ale yeast and no spices. The result is a soft wheat backdrop that accentuates the Pacific Northwest hop character.

Can. Tall Boys, Leeds. Hazy, straw colour. Thin, glossy, white head. Nose has floral, lemony hop. Bit of an Earl Grey tea thing going on. A bit of lemon balm. Taste is light, and floral sweet. Moderate bitterness. Soft, soapy mouthfeel. Light bitter finish. Other than the soapy, floral thing, there’s not a deal going on with this.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Cigarette City. Aroma is strong melon, pineapple, other fruit, mild pine/resin. Appearance is cloudy yellow with finger-width white fizzy head with decent retention, tons of sparkle and nice lacing. Taste is surprising amount of pine up front over fruit. Some spiciness that must be from the American ale yeast. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, average to lively carbonation and dry, lightly bitter finish. Overall, a nice refreshing white IPA that is not your classic IPA.

Bottle from The Lazy Dog Slightly hazy deep straw color with a frothy white head that persists. Lemony spicy earthy aromas with bits of citrus hops Light sweet maltiness. Bready sweet malty flavor with bits of cereal malt and light citrus hop flavor. This is a pretty tasty beer, but its not an IPA. hell its not much of a wheat beer either. the carbonic bite is the most bitter thing in this beer.

This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a glossy yellow color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Lingering speckled to somewhat spider web lacing roamed around the glass.
The smell started off with some white pepper leading on to a sly little bit of citrus (lemon and clementine, mainly).
The taste was moderately sweet with a light spice from the white pepper adequately sliding in for the balance. The aftertaste was moderately sweet with a nice white pepper finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionable crisp spicy feel clinging to my tongue. Carbonation is fairly light allowing the spices to hit appropriately.
Overall, what a nice white ipa. I’d have this again and would think this would go well with a nice New York strip steak with crumbled bleu’ cheese on top.
