American IPA 6.4%

IMG_5521.jpg
Amber, slight haze, small head of dense bubbles.
Fruity/floral hop aroma that is present but subdued (what hop is it?), good carbonation, medium body,
unique flavour profile, malt present but is hop forward... Different IPA but thoroughly enjoyable, not in your face hoppy or bitter.
I would lean towards it being more of an American Amber than IPA but would love the recipe, it's a good beer.
Thanks mate, glad you liked it! Interesting about the Amber Ale comment, have not had anyone mention it could be out of style yet. I guess that's why it's great to field from a larger pool of reviewers!! There is, erm, a few hops in that one haha.
Recipe? No probs!

Deep copper colour, small tight head.
Aroma of plasticine? Tastes of blackcurrant, slightly watery, thin body.
Sorry to hear that mate does not sound enjoyable at all. This one was filled from my growler filler, bottle purged with CO2 prior but thinking perhaps it did not travel well or like warming up from keg temps during transit?? It's quite enjoyable on tap and I find it pretty close to the mark when doing a side by side with Little Creatures Rogers.
