El Toro IPA

12 oz. bottle courtesy of golubj. Pours a hazy amber with a smaller white head. The aroma is right in line with many other west coast IPAs; citrus, pine, and floral hops along with moderately sweet caramel. The flavor is more of the same nice citrus, pine, floral hops with a decent amount of caramel malt. I did also have a bit of an off flavor mid to late in the taste, but it was not too distracting. Medium bodied, with nice dry bitterness in the finish.

Thanks to golubj!! Murky copper in color with a small white head. Ah yes, hops in the aroma, citrus and pine but also with another note...malts and...can’t figure it out. Flavor is very pleasant and strange. Hop start with malts, barley and yeast following. This is an interesting brew for sure. I’m really enjoying the flavor, balanced very nicely. The finish is slightly bitter, slightly dry. The dry part feels a bit grainy otherwise it would be a 5. Very impressed.

Bottle thanks to golubj.
Pours golden in color with about two inches of head. Smell is very nice citrus and piney, grassy hops. Taste is more of the citrusy and piney hops, however there is something at the very end of each sip that just isn’t fitting. A very dominant off flavor at the finish. Everything up until that point is very good however.

Thanks to golubj for the bottle! Hazy copper pour with fluffy off-white head and spotty lace. Citric aroma reminiscent of cascade hops. Loads of grapefruit. Big resin bitter finish. Very Nice!

Pours copper with off white head. Vegital nose with some cheese in the flavor. I may have had a bad bottle so I need to find this again.
