Sweetgrass IPA, Grand Teton Brewing Co. "Jackson Hole’s Original"
My first Idaho beer, I do believe.
Hazy. pale orange color, good 1/4 " of bright white foam above.
Fresh aroma, mild citrus zest, mellow, but discernible hops.
On the tongue...faintly hoppy dishwater flavor,...light bodied, faintly flavored, disappears from the palate in a minute or less...
Persistent hops on the tongue, but a bit too mild to call it an IPA...not much more than an APA.
Nothing terrible about it, just a bit blase.

Jul 14, 2008 12oz bottle. Light floral aroma. Copper body with decent head. Flavor is like an ipa mostly citrus but body is thin and just didn’t have that cripness on the palate. Decent brew.

Jul 13, 2008 Pours a clear copper with thin white head. Some decent lacing left on top. Aroma is not very noticable. A little spicy nose. Flavor is better, a little malt sweetness in the background but nice hop spiciness and finish. Decent IPA.

Jul 6, 2008 12 ounce bottle from Belmont Station--a golden amber-orange body with a medium white head. Nose of citrus hops and sweet caramel malts. Sticky, bready, chewy, and quite enjoyable. Decent bitterness is finish. Not the best IPA, but far from bad.
