FROM THE LABEL: " A big fan of dry hopping, which sounds much dirtier than it is."

 

FROM THE MOUTH: AMERICAN IPA: Malty aroma. This tastes like a lager on steroids. Not much going on in the hops department and it is a bit astringent  and dry. Really not sure what they are trying to accomplish. If I were not expecting an IPA and lets say they were going for a lager I would probably say "love those steroids." Doesn't pass the mustard for me and I will not buy this one again. Way too many wonderful APA's around to have this one again. B
