This is a rating for "Twigs and Berries", a Cedar Aged Juniper IPA. Bottle from AskDrTodd - thanks! Aroma is that of gin and beer. There’s also some peppercorn in there. Flavor is a full tongue bitterness, with all kinds of floral notes. It’s like hops and gin together. Finishes clean, with the tongue wanting more. Pours copper with white head.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
On tap at CCB pouring crystal clear copper with gold edges and off white head. The aroma begins sweet with citrus and spicy hops and then heads into mild levels of herbaliness and flower pedals. The taste is essential the new improved Jai Alai with its deliciously executed hop bill of rich citrus hop flavor, spicy hop flavor and then building into resiny piney hop bitterness. Well off in the background are sort of floral and herbal like notes.
