Don’t call it a Session IPA! Just as it sounds, the Simpel is the most basic of our offerings. The Simpel is the lightest, but is also the hoppiest beer Overshores makes. It is refreshingly dry and crisp unlike heavy and sometimes sticky IPA’s. With a bright aroma from Overshores signature Belgian yeast, the Simpel is a perfectly refreshing beer for a hot summer day. With a heaping helping of Centennial and Cascade hops, this beer is a study in grapefruit in a brut champagne-like body.
Light enough for hot days, or a perfect morning beer for Sunday brunch to revive the senses after a summer Saturday night.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7
Location: 11.2 oz bottle picked up from the brewery, 4/10/15
Aroma: The aroma is Belgian yeast/spice, with some grapefruit hops as well
Appearance: This one pours a murky dark yellowish color with a thick, frothy off-white head
Flavor: The flavor is along the same lines, lots of spice/yeast, with a bitter grapefruit flavor
Palate: The body is medium, drinks like a higher than 4% beer for sure, lots of carbonation, dry finish
Overall Impression: This is fairly unique. Kind of a hodgepodge of styles. Too much carbonation though. That hurts the drinkability a bit. Still, worth trying.
