Description
BridgePort produces a variety of international style ales, including IPA. BridgePort’s ales are naturally conditioned in the bottle, keg, or cask from which they are served - they’re never force carbonated. The natural conditioning creates ale that is smooth, naturally carbonated, and full of flavor.

Today, BridgePort Brewing Company is one of the top specialty brewers in the state of Oregon. As BridgePort Brewing grew in popularity, it also grew in its brewing capacity from its 600-barrel beginnings to over 100,000 barrels per year. Distribution has grown from Portland to 18 states, and the brewery’s emphasis on producing quality, innovative ales has provided it with an international following and numerous awards.

Bottle. Cloudy, gold color. Floaties. Medium head and medium lace. Taste and aroma is spruce and citrus. I just don’t understand why there are so many IPAs.

Bottle from a supermarket in Oregon. Aroma is zesty citrus peel, grassy hops, tropical fruits, light pale malt, soft floral notes. Light sweet and above medium bitter. Body is medium. Tasty, still pretty royally hopped for a very classic IPA.

Bottle. One of the last from this important brewery. Pours a dark ruby hue, brown as well. A small off-white head. A malty nose, some cardboard. Thin palate, sweet toffee, caramel, light spice. Solid brew. Probably quite a few years old.
