Description
Gate City’s name derives from Atlanta, Georgia’s nickname, the “Gate City.” As early as the 1800s, Atlanta has been the center of commerce in the south. Once known as Terminus, Atlanta served as a hub for railroads heading north, to the port of Savannah, south, and ultimately west. A dream realized by co-founders Brian Borngesser and Pat Rains, Gate City Brewing is a humble (& tasty) testament to the power of independence and value of resilience.

Not a bad DIPA, dripping with dank, resinous hops but offering up enough malt sweetness to counter this herbal-piney assault. Starts with a quick hit of orange and lemon offset by caramel and toasted bread, then quickly amps up the sticky, green hop residue, laced with stonefruit and mango and black pepper. Finishes dry and clingy, the bitterness not overpowering but prominent. Pours a beautiful orange-gold with a massive white head and incredible lacing. Aroma stands as the weakest spot, hints of pine and caramel but subdued. Thick, oily texture goes back way too easily. Pretty good for a massive West Coast IPA brewed in Georgia.

On tap at the kickoff at Roux on Canton. Brown color, with a medium, tan head. Nose of caramel and light coffee, with some honey, chocolate malt, and pine sap. Nicely balanced sweet and bitter flavor. Light to medium body, buttery, sticky, and fairly crisp. This is a pretty new cell amber ale. Well balanced, flavorful, and sessionable.
