Mind you, I really dislike IPA but this was a sample to just get a tick. On tap its clear pale with a pond scummy head. Very mild hop perfume on the nose. First taste is exceptionally bitter. I'm not talking about hop bitter either, its that astringent phenolic feel of an immature IPA brewer. Pointed, rude. Hard to take. Not sure what to think of this. Supposedly IPA, but flat on the palate and mouthcoating. Quite rude ass. What a mess, even for an IPA.
