Indeed Day Tripper Pale Ale

This pale ale from the Indeed Brewing Company of Minneapolis, Minnesota has 5.4% ABV and 45 IBU's. They, like several other new brewers, are located in Northeast Minneapolis. "Choose your own adventure" is the motto on their can. They are a member of 1% for the planet, a global alliance of businesses that donate one percent of their gross revenue to organizations that help preserve and restore the natural environment. This beer uses four pounds of hops per barrel.

The beer pours copper in color with a half inch of thick, foamy off-white head. The aroma is dank hops, floral and earthy, with some passion fruit. The taste follows the aroma, lots of dank nearing piney hops. There is some malt with notes of tea. The finish seems quite bitter, far more than the 45 IBU's listed. It drinks smooth with a soft carbonation. This is the most dank hopped pale ale I have ever had. If you like that, definitely seek this out.
