Had one of these at the Brewpub to compliment my 5 cheese pizza, and one of them there chicken and anduille sausage kay sa dillas. Thanks to Robert and Rick for joining me for an undbridled night of debauchery. Nose of pine & grapefruit, resin and flowers. Pours a clear copper with melon highlights. The white head is thin and characteristic of brew from the tap leaving a thin sheet of lace. The brew is bitter and acidic. The character is heavily citric with decent depth and sourness accenting the bitterness at the finish. The medium body is dry and lively.

7/21/2007: Columbus IPA is a cloudy, amber-orange color with a frothy off-white/beige head. The sweet maltiness is overshadowed by a dull bitterness that has a light grapefruit flavor to it. The body is medium-light and thin. This beer is overly bitter without very much flavor to balance out the dull bitterness.

Draught at Casa Nueva Cantina in Athens, Ohio during the Ohio Brew Week 2007. Rating #15 for this beer...
