West O 6 Foot 6 IPA

This is a 6.6% ABV India Pale Ale that uses Horizon and Glacier hops. It is from the West O Beer Company of West Okoboji, Iowa. They invest part of their sales in the preservation and improvement of the Iowa Great Lakes Region.

The beer pours lightly hazed, deep golden and apricot in color. There is a short head of white foam. The aroma is light, citrus, orange, very light tropical notes. The taste follows the aromas, with the tropical notes being passion fruit and guava. The beer drinks very easy, a bit smooth, with soft carbonation. The finish is dry and with moderate bitterness. This drinks nice enough, but doesn't overly impress.
