Beermanns Expedition IPA

Brewed by Beermanns Beerwerks Brewery
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Lincoln, California USA

A hazy orange beer with a small disappearing head. The aroma is very hoppy and the flavor is hoppy and flowery with a dry end.

Bottled. Hazy amber. Salty grapefruit aroma. Some sweet malt. Heavy on the hops. Thick, but with streamlined mouthfeel, massively bitter finish. An unrefined but heavy smack in the face.

Dark amber colour. Phenolic, metallic hop aroma. Sort of dirt-like finish after some one-dimensional bitter hops. Just not digging this brewery.

(22oz bottle, identified as India Pale Ale, with same ABV and same description on the side) Big and fluffy off-white head atop a lightly hazed amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, herbal, grapefruit, spice, floral. Taste is medium sweet, herbal, pine, grapefruit, floral, mint. Watery light-medium body. Big flavor that needs a bigger body to contain it, though still quite good.

Bottle. Hazy orange colour with a big off-white head. Peach, pine, hop aroma and a malty, peach, pine, hop taste. Medium body with a dry finish.

Pours a clear copper bronze with a thick, airy foamy white head. Dry hoppy, grainy and piney aroma. Starts with a full viscous and bittersweet palate with some dry caramel malty balance. A decent IPA, but could be more assertive with its hops.

Pours copper with a white head. Smells earthy, sage like and floral. Tastes grassy and bitter with some peppery splashes on the finish.

Hazy amber ale with a thick off white head. A typical floral and caramel malt in aroma. In mouth, a sustained hop bitterness with lots of grapefruit, a bit thin and simple. A good little starter IPA. Tasted in August 2007. 2,99 at Booze Bros.
