+++1/2

FROM  THE LABEL: " Pacific Northwest Ale since 1856."

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONRevered by beer lovers the world over for its bold flavor, India Pale Ale was born of necessity in the 1700s. Its high alcohol content and copiously-hopped brewing process were required to survive the journey to British soldiers in India. We brew our India Pale Ale in Hood River, Oregon with flavorful Pacific Northwest hops and the finest two-row barley malt. The result is a refreshing brew with an aromatic, full-hop flavor anchored by caramel malt sweetness—perfect for sharing with friends on a Pacific Northwest summer’s day.

FROM THE MOUTH:INDIA PALE ALE:  Mostly bitter taste, can't taste citrus or malt...it is mostly bitter. Not much going on with this beer. Kind of disappointing for me. B-
