Beerguy India Pale Ale

Brewed by Anderson Valley Brewing Company
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Boonville, California USA

Bottle from Ledger’s. No aroma. Flavor is grass, grain, wheat, yeast, mellow (Belgian?) hop character. Very calming in its mineral water quality. Reminds me of a Colorado beer.

Draft at the WCBF 08. Provided by Chau Tien. Strong hoppy aroma. Amber color with off-white head. Really fruity hop over malt. Just refreshing.

Bottle at Papsø. Clear amber coloured with a small off white ehad. Sweet aroma of caramel, hops and grass with notes of pine needles. Fruity flavour of caramel, hops, grass, pine needles and grape fruits. Dry hoppy finish.

Bomber from Sandy’s Liquors. Nose of citrus, light pine and caramel. Almost clear orange with a small yellowish head. Flavor is nicely bitter with some lingering to the finish along with some pine.

Bottle from the brewery. I’m surprised at the low ratings because I didn’t find this one to be all that bad. Nice clear orangish color with an off-white head. Sweet aroma with some citrusy hops. Flavor is sweet pale/caramel malt with citrusy (mostly orangish) hops. Fairly standard palate for the style. Drinkable and not bad at all.
