Widmer Brothers Broken Halo IPA

Im down to session this beer. Crisp IPA, the best Widmer offers in my opinion. But then again, many far better IPA’s are found. Could be hoppier

Aroma of pine and citrus hop. Decent amber color with a substantial white head that laces a bit. Starts with smooth piney hop. Malt isn’t in it. Very firm mouthfeel. The finish is lightly pine, with some grapefruit popping up. It’s not harsh like some IPAs. Perhaps for that reason it is being underrated.

Bottle. Nice golden/yellow pour that is a bit hazy with a small white head. Hop and citrus aromas with a crisp spice, hoppy flavor with a hint of malt. Wish it was distributed more here (soon).

Very decent IPA - Lots of hop flavor mixed with various citrus notes. Solid bitterness throughout the drink. A little too thin thin thin Pretty enjoyable.

Bottled. Pours a bright abmer with a thin white head. Plenty of pine and bit of flowers on the nose but I’m not picking up much in the way of citrus. More pine in the taste, and the promised citrus. Seems a bit one dimensional.

Clear golden honey appearance with a decent film of a white head with some sticky lacing. Crisp and peppery on the tongue, spicy and lively, but not really the right IPA for me, lacking juiciness, lacking that dank grassy and juicy character that I really like. Still, not a terrible IPA, but there’s some bland metallic notes that are pretty annoying. Finishes fairly bland and empty. Starts well, doesn’t end well.

A slightly hazed yellow pour. An aroma of hops and malt. A tad mor malty than hoppy. A slightly thin palate not a bad beer. Just a little weak for the syle but very drinkable.

mmmm... pretty good. Tap, golden color with thin white head. Hoppy aroma with maybe some other spices. Creamy palate. Taste of hops and other earhy flavors like citrus, grain and malts and sweetness. Great IPA
