Full Sail Prodigal Sun IPA

Pours amber with a stubborn white head. Smells of citrus, resiny, caramel. Tastes sweet and caramelly with a full compliment of citrussy hoppy flavors.

An amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is plainly sweet malty. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and hops, leading to a dry bitter finish.

citrucy hops, with some odd odor, smells like sulfur. Flavor is light, and fruity. lots of nice hops, and this is really quite bitter. There is some more sulfur in the finish, might be an off bottle.

I always seem to enjoy Full Sail’s reserve offerings and the prices can’t be beat. I’m not sure if this is the same as Son of Spot but re-branded or what. nice light orange color. It smells slightly like grassy hops but nothing strong. The flavor is a nice balanced IPA with the only prominent hop feature being a grassy bitterness. I did not find this to be nearly as hoppy as some of the other reviewers here. Overall, a decent IPA but most likely will disappoint the real hop heads.

Bottle via trade with BlackForestCO. Thanks Jake! Pours copper with an initially big foamy head that diminishes to a ring around the glass. Good lacing. Aroma is pine and grainy malt. Has an odd aroma in the background that I couldn’t place. Flavor is bitter hops with malt balancing in the end. Decent brew.

Clear orange-brown. Short tan head with dense lace. Full, round mouth feel, very smooth with a British balance. Malty but not sweet nose which quickly transitions to a hoppy middle and finish. Cask ale!

A nice citrus hop aroma. This has quite a strong hop bite to it. An overly bitter finish without a lot of flavor. A metallic bitter. The longer I drink this the less I like it.

Cloudy amber with medium white head. Hints of hops in the aroma followed up by toasted malt and caramel. Hoppy flavour with citric and piney notes. Bitter finish.
