Castle Danger Ode IPA

This 7.0% ABV India Pale Ale is from the Castle Danger Brewery of Two Harbors, Minnesota. It uses Citra, Azacca, Amarillo, and Centennial hops.

The beer pours lightly hazed, the color of dried apricots. There is nearly an inch of off-white, foamy head. The aroma is tropical fruit, mango, mango skin, citrus, with a bit of earthy dankness. The taste follows the aromas, hitting the same notes, adding in a dose of oranges. The finish is dry and moderately bitter. There is sweetness in the malt. The beer drinks very smooth and creamy, with soft carbonation. This is very tasty and really, really enjoyable to drink.
