Parks IPA

Mostly clear, but ever so slightly hazy golden coloured body shows with a nice two to three centimetre tall pure white head on top. Aroma of crisp, grassy and herbal hops with a nice bite and seemingly supportive and balanced malt notes with a light dose of both grapefruit and bread towards the end of the nose. Medium-bodied; Assertive hop flavours come out with the piney and slightly bitter grapefruit hop flavours with some good bready and biscuity malts with little else in terms of complexity, but the balance is struck right. Aftertaste shows some nice floral, grassy and even lightly citrusy hop notes that beat out the relatively strong maltiness here, but a dry bitterness persists at the end. Overall, a very nice and balanced, hoppy but mild-ish IPA that hits the bitterness nicely with a good piney and especially floral bite, but also showing the biscuits. A nice IPA to sample, especially while in the Parks, perhaps better over the last year and this one! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from the Old Faithful General Store in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming on 31-July-2020 for US$2,29 sampled at my house here in Washington on 19-June-2021 for a Father's Day celebration with my family, right before leaving for two more National Parks with my family.

Canned October 19th 2020.

It pours a lightly hazy pale gold with oodles of foam.

It smells hoppy in a fruity way. Apricot? Peach? Combination of the 2? Good bready biscuit malt backbone. Kinda bitter but it's a gentle bitterness. Bready malt backs it up. Even some sweetness in the finish.

Good mouthfeel, very good beer. It will be a pleasure finishing the 6pack.

Hops are delightful in the taste. Again, they're fruity, somewhat spicy,
