This 6.5% ABV India Pale Ale is from New Belgium Brewing of Fort Collins, Colorado.
The beer pours a light and clear amber and copper in color. There is a tall, thick, foamy head of off-white. The aroma is hop forward, citrus, tropical, cantaloupe and a hint of pine. The taste has tangerine, grapefruit, ripe melon, and tropical fruit all nicely balanced on a malt background enough to hold it up. The finish is bracingly bitter. There is the slightest hint of pine in the aftertaste. The beer drinks smooth and round with a subtle carbonation. This is an all around solid American IPA.
