3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20Draught on 28th July 2009 at Rattle & Hum, NYC. Clear gold with good white lacing head. Grassy hop and some floral aromas then deliciously hoppy throuhg to a LONG satisfying finish - very good characteristics for a US IPA.

Out of keg, very noticeable smell. Awesome floral aroma that comes from the belgian yeast. Appearance is an apricot color very clean and clear, overall a great day beer.

Good standard IPA with a sweet maltbase with notes of caramel and a crisp citrusy hop profile. Refreshing!

Aroma was good. Taste to me like slight liqourish candy. Just the remininse of the black liqourish turned me off. Mild hoppy aroma. Nothing special for me.

The brew pours a deep amber orange with a light off-white head that lasts some and leaves little lacing. The aroma is mostly floral hops with a hint of spice and caramel. The flavor is a fair mix of floral hops and spice which is quite enjoyable. Overall this is a pretty enjoyable brew, nothing special but I would not be opposed to having more.

A very nice amber pour with a big white head that quickly fades into significant lacing. The aroma is dominated by the hops but they aren’t too powerful. The taste is surprisingly clean and easy on the palate. The hops are present but this is one of the most drinkable IPAs that I’ve come across. It’s quite smooth and sessionable!

Lagunitas India Pale Ale is a great session beer. Aroma is light are floral. Pours and expected clear amber with a nice head that doesn’t stick around long. Lagunitas IPA is nicely balanced with a nice hop flavor, a bit a of sweetness, and only a light bitterness at the end. Lagunitas IPA is a great go-to everyday beer although low on the complexity scale for the style.

Bouteille 22oz. De couleur ambrée et claire. Nez de houblon fruité (agrumes, léger d’abricots), citrique, moyennement herbeux, légèrement floral et résineux, malté de caramel doux, léger de pain avec des notes de biscuits. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture aux notes huileuses et résineuses. Goût moyennement amer de houblon citrique, fruité (agrumes, léger d’abricots), légèrement herbeux et floral (une amertume présente toute la gorgée) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de malt léger-moyen sucré (caramel doux) aux faibles traces rôties avec un léger goût de pain et des notes de biscuits puis en finale l’amertume de houblon se veut plus herbeuse, moyennement résineuse et légèrement asséchante. Post-goût long et aux notes sèches, moyen-amer de houblon citrique, moyennement fruité (zeste d’agrumes, notes de pelures d’abricots), résineux et léger-moyen herbeux avec des traces de malt sucré.

Bue en fût dans un pub irlandais près de Time’s Square. Belle IPA dorée qui offre un nez puissant de houblons floraux et d’agrumes. En bouche, l’acidité est puissante, le houblon aussi. Une IPA qui respecte toutes les règles du style. Les amateurs de houblon ne pourront certainement pas se tromper. Une bière que je rachèterai sans doute lors de mon prochain séjour à New York! Cheers!
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours light amber with white head. Aroma is pine, citrus, bread. Flavor is good, hoppy with some malt, citrus, and pine notes as well. This is a solid I.P.A

When I think of good, solid IPA, I think of Lagunitas. Not the best one out there, but still way ahead of mediocre IPAs. It has a complex hoppy taste and aroma, and displays typical IPA bitterness, still well balanced.
