Our West-Coast inspired India Pale ale offers lots of flavor and aroma without over-powering the senses. A complex blend of 5 hops lend a firm bitterness to the notes of grapefruit, tangerines, and pine. A big dry hop addition of Citra and Simcoe hops give Mystic Mama a nose to stand up to the flavor.

tap, rated last summer - Pours hazy light gold with a lingering white head that laces well. There's a pleasant tropical fruit led aroma. The flavor is moderately bitter with a solid malt balance and tropical fruit notes. It's medium bodied and very good.

Draught at Ginger Man, 12/7/18. Lightly hazy, lemon-golden with a fluffy white head showing modest retention. Nose is quite intensely citric. Hmmm, was hoping for a NE IPA, but that certainly doesn't seem to be the case. Cracker malts lie behind it with no other real malt character to balance the big pine-grapefruit-pineapple character. The pineapple and meyer lemon help add some levity and tropical character, but it's dangerously heavy on the citrus and pine. In the mouth it's very dry, with tight carbonation and a good cleanliness. Snappy, crackery malts do nothing to help balance the heavy grapefruit-lemon character. Light peach, pine and pineapple sit on the finish with moderate-to-high bitterness. Substantial texture and it's clean, but just way too much bitterness and dull citrus character for me.

Draft somewhere in northern Indiana. Straw yellow, ~clear body, medium tight white head. Fruity, clean body with citrus and citrus peel, lemon, and a muddled modestly bitter finish. Delicate maltiness. The complexity really shines after the beer warms up a bit. Very nice IPA.

Fresh can from Craft Brewed. Glad to Jackie O's down here in Nashville now. Pours a relatively clear deep gold with some copper highlights. A punch of tropical fruit upon opening with grapefruit standing out as it warms. Some kiwi and peach in there as well. Clean and crisp on the palate, with just the right amount of malt for a midwestern styled IPA. Toffee, toasted bready malt, pine, dank and citrus notes on the palate as well. Medium bitterness with toffee malt and citrus on the finish. Just a solid all-around beer. --- Beer merged from original tick of Jackie O's Mystic Mama IPA on 15 Oct 2018 at 22:11 - Score: 7. Original review text: Dank, punchy citrus aromas w/ peach and kiwi. More citrus w/ caramel and pine. Clean and crisp with sweet, citrus, dank and bitter notes.

Can from Chris, thank you so much. Dated 5.17. and consumed 6.01. Clear gold. Clean hops, low bitterness. The hops are green with some fruitiness. It mostly green grass in flavor, which is super dull for me.

Can from Bayshore Beverage Sandusky. Mostly clear deep yellow with a good sized bubbly white head that persists. Tangerine apricot pine and grapefruit rule the nose with a sweet bready malt deep underneath. The flavor is more pine and grapefruit than anything else. Bitter resinous drips off your tongue long after each sip. Bold tasty bitter IPA.

12oz can pours a murky orange with some lacing white head. Nose has orange and lemon peels, soap, grass, biscuit and grist. Flavor has citrus pith, some muddled citrus juice too, grist, soap, spruce. Dry finish. Nice flagship.

Can thanks to Matt B! Fresher can. Clear gold in color, thin lasting head. Great aroma, tropical fruits, floral and pine dankness. Nice Simcoe notes. Bitterness lingers for a good amount. Texture is sticky with some dankness. Pretty good flavor, was surprised.
