Road 2 Ruin Double IPA

Tasty hop-forward

On tap at Two Roads, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out resinous hops and crisp biscuity malt in fairly ordinary balance. Flavour is very dry for a IIPA, with fresh, spicy, piney hops, and a crisp biscuity malt base. Bone dry, with a nicely biting bitterness. Very good.

355ml bottle from SpielBEERg in Moscow. Pours hazy gold with a small off-white head. Aroma is dank, peaches, light citrus. Taste is medium bitter, pine, pale malt, faint tropical fruits.

4-pack of cans pouring a hazy golden-orange colour with a warm bubbly cap, decent lasting with some foamy lace. Sweet malty rich nose with some pineapple juice hints in the background, citrus and herbal hoppiness. The taste is not as sweet with the hops balancing things. The bitterness is quite nice actually. The alcohol is felt, but not too bad. Could drink of few of these, so good to have the 4-pack.

Pineapple, apricot nose. Clear golden, thin head. Pineapple ,lemongrass. Medium body, easy carbonation.

Can: Poured a clear golden color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops with subtle floral undertones and light bitterness. Taste is a mix of citrusy hops, light floral undertones with some bitterness and some residual sugar which is more or less well integrated. Body si about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable but lacking some balance and more dominant hops profile would have been better.
