OFallon 5-Day IPA

Brewed by OFallon Brewery
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
OFallon, Missouri USA

Deep copper in color the nose was filled with scents of caramel, pine, grapefruit and dark chocolate. The palate has a nice roundness to it though it also lacks flavor. It has a nice soft dryness but lacks the power and depth of flavor.

Pours a golden orange/light amber color with a one finger frothy white head that quickly fades into a nice lasting ring and cap, leaving minimal lacing. Nice floral citrus hop aroma with some dank piny resionus and a subtle caramel malt backbone. Thin body, slightly watered down. Citrus hop flavor with with some pine but not as resinous as the aroma had me hoping for. Weak malt backbone that doesn’t provide much balance although it does have a slight biscuit flavor that is pretty nice. Slightly dry finish. Drinkable session beer but not something I would seek out again.

Very nice surprise! Not as bitter as most IPA’s but it is very flavorful and drinkable. Kind of a hybrid between an IPA and an APA. Nice fruitness, moderate hops, and very smooth. Especially surprised to see that it is brewed by Point Brewing in Stevens Point, WI!

Bottled at Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm. Hazy amber, small creamy head. Aroma of canteloupe, minerals and hay. Mid-sweet with clean mouthfeel. Medium bodied with sticky syrupy malt, some alcohol and piney resiny bitterness. Harsh and undeveloped, but in terms of malt and hops.

Poured into a standard pint glass produced a finger worth of white head that settled to a thick lace. The body of the brew was a clear amber color. There is a good hop presence on this nose grapefruit and gassy. There was a slight sour note on the brew as well. A great bitter forward brew the hops are nice and fresh some piney resin and citrus. There was a medium feel to my mouth with ample carbonation for my tongue. A nice IPA would not turn it down. Good drinkability on the brew easy to session

It’s practically water mixed with a slight bit of hops, and a strange off-taste in the malt that makes me cringe slightly...

Hop aroma is fairly weak upon pour and kept looking for the sediment but was disappointed. Very little flavor after initial sip and the bitterness of the hops did not linger long enough.

Pours hazy amber with a huge off white head (bottle date was dec. 07). Aroma is citrusy grapefruit. Flavor is nice citrusy, piney hops with slight pale malt flavors. Not bad.
