100th Florida brewed beer rating.
On tap at brewery. Pours up brutally cold into a tumbler with thin white head and has an opaque hazy copper and ripe orange peel edges body. Pretty full aroma for a Florida beer. I get mildly roasted malts, grapefruit rind, sweet malts and pale maltiness. Darn good dangerously sessionable brew. Starts with malt sweetness coupled with spicy hop bitterness, an earthy type note and sort of grapefruit hop bitterness. Not too hop forward of a brew since the malts grow to midway with a pleasing combination of rye malt twang and grainy maltiness that blends into biscuit and lightly roasted crystal malts. Very nice confluence of flavors. To the finish mildly roasted malts mix with a growing somewhat vague hop bitterness that lingers deep into the after taste. Dunedin is cranky out some really good stuff lately.
wollfman (2), USA does not count May 8, 2008 This seasonal brew should be continuosly made. I tried it 4/2008. I’m not a huge IPA fan, but I am with this beer. BeerFanDan17 (301), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA May 7, 2008 This is a seasonal brew put out by Dunedin. Tasted on 5/2/08 at the Dunedin Brewery in beautiful Dunedin, FL. A very good IPA with a delightful strong hoppy flavor, but not overpowering. Palate was smooth and rich. They should continue making this for sure.
