Cheap is right, many raters have been recently entering ratings for this under the Cold Storage entry, which is wrong. Also I was surprised to see so many beers in the db called FLIPA. ?? Anyone, this is definitely the green can Florida IPA by Florida Avenue brewing co that I'm rating. It has a really nice nose. Floral upfront, like tropical flowers, but those volatile compounds fade out giving way to tropical fruit. And yet the description says just cascade? Weird. Flavor is less exciting, as it drinks and looks like a hazy, a tad lifeless, low bitterness, soft body with little malt support. It was alright.

A little confusing in the database, I guess florida avenue relabeled this FLIPA, Florida's IPA, but then there is also Cold Storage Florida Avenue IPA, but that's out of production. Yea there are even more beers, from different brewers, called Florida's IPA. But I think I got this in the right spot because its brewed by Florida avenue. Its just the FLIPA label that's confusing me. To compound the confusion, many are putting their rating for this into the cold storage location. WTF. OK, anyway, this stuff from the start is certainly a pale ale. It has a slightly fruity nose. I just wonder if its as brutally bitter as most IPA. At first, it actually comes across with a good deal of co2 and almost has a fruity front end. Its not till the middle that the rubbery IPA bitterness starts to sets in. Yes, this lager lover was almost fooled into thinking this was a decent pale ale but, in the end the finish would would give it away, a straight up and hit me in the jaw with an unseen unpredictable kick from behind. Long bitter IPA finish.

Citrus, a little lime, and decent malt backbone. Easy drinking. Golden orange pour with ok head. Bitter end. Ok. Can.

From a can. Pours a clear copper with an off white head. Aromas are grassy. Flavors are bitter dank hay.

Grabbed a quick sixer as only tick available in cooler. Straight forward old school ipa. Nose is light foresty hops, perfume and lemon. Tastes of citrus,pine, caramel and plastic. Bitter and thin.
