Wynkoop Mile HI.P.A.

on tap at brewpub. Pours a crystal clear copper color with a thin white head. Aroma is light floral esters, pine, grapefruit, hints of spice. Flavor is pine and grapefruit, caramel. Medium body with a floral hop finish.

To be honest, this was at the end of a long day of drinking. Pours amber with an ivory head. Aroma of fruity hops. Medium bodied with average carbonation, Strong amount caramel in the malt profile, countered citrus and grassy bitterness. Some butterscotch on the finish. That’s all I have folks.

Not the best IPA ever. Sorry Wynkoop, I love you, but get rid of that diacetyl!!! It had a decent hop aroma and flavor, but both were compromised by that buttery bastard diacetyl! The caramel malt flavor was accented by it however. I will still come to the Wynkoop though! I love the place!

Tap at the brewpub. Light clear gold color. Small head. Nice floral hop nose. Taste is west coast hops, floral and bitter, Very drinkable and a nice refreshing beer. This is definitely a sessionable beer.

On tap at the brewery. Slightly cloudy copper in colour with a quickly dissapearing thin white head. Aroma is of citrusy and grassy hops. Flavour is citrusy. There’s some malt sweetness in there but it is far overshadowed by the hops. I like hops, especially the variety they are using in this (Cascade? I get it mixed up with Centennial very often even though they have distinct flavours) but there is not much of a malt flavour behind it. It has a medium body, a little undercarbonated, and leaves a bitter citrusy aftertaste. A good beer overall and could be great if they put a good malt flavour in there.

(on tap at the brewery). Clear, light copper color. Small off white head. Hoppy grapefruit aroma. Spicy hop taste. Long duration. Slick texture. Astringent and bitter finish. Moderate carbonation. Good lacing. - Aroma left me expecting more, but it’s still a good IPA

My Scottish friend ordered this and found it too much for him, though it isn’t as radical as his experience might have suggested. It is a fairly standard western-style IPA. A massive pine note with a twist of orange peel, it was at its best in the flavor; the aroma was not a great, bountiful IPA aroma. Certainly hoppy, it had a nice bitter finish to which one can warm over time. I think their milk stout was a more interesting and potentially original take on a beer. On tap at brewpub.
