The IPA style is the best-selling in the world and although it is also one of the most bitter you had to have it!
Aromas: Tropical fruits such as melon, peach, orange.
Flavors: Hopped with a dry and bitter finish characteristic of an India Pale Ale.

On tap at CRBF, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has somewhat harsh, earthy, citrusy hops, bready malt, some faint pine, and a bit of a stale quality. Flavour has very stale hops, which still impart bitterness but no real flavour. Terrible hop expression that ruins this.
