May I rant? Why do brewers claim different ipa by using a different hop? Come on now, these beers taste the same, the only thing that would make the flavor change is time, so why not list them by their born on date? Eh? They could at least let the drinker know which one it is by returning email or responding on face book, but NO! no? If it is a certain hop IPA call it that, don’t use the same label and name. This fad about using different hops on the same label is happy bullshit. Even same addams made it a macro thing, a whole line of ipa with the same label just different hops, egad. This beer? Some mild tartness in there, taste the same as the other two, plain old terribly on style ipa. Tho tartness almost makes it desirable. Chewing on green grapefruit rinds all over my mouth. Yez, there is a little sizzle in there. Long difficult for a lager lover ipa finish, almost interesting. I have to go back now and see if I srote the same thing on the others.

On tap at the bocktown monaca. They did not know if it was tettnand or columbus so I’ll put it here, I cannot really tell the diffrence between the two hop varieties and I thing its superfolous to have the same beer with just two different kind of hops. I see this is a fad by brewers to attempt to increase sales. Darker iced tea brown with a smooth creamy head. Quite bitter initially and much more bitter than expected considering it was s’posed to be a pale ale; this stuff is IPA fer sure. More hoppy bitter than many IPA. Has nice lacing. Coats my glass like your favorite mates see thru teddy. Odd roasty or woody background in there, makes it intriquing but it still is very bitter fer sure. Finish is long and fully bitter. Barely any co2. If you like IPA give this a try, you will not be dissapoinbted.
