Ninkasi Total Domination IPA

Brewed by Ninkasi Brewing Company
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Eugene, Oregon USA

This IPA is heaven in a big bottle. I like the 22oz bottle size, I wish more brewers would switch to this size. Anyway, Total Domination IPA is a very aromatic, medium body, light carbonated beer. It has a slight citrus taste, with a malty/bitter finish and has a nice balance of hops. Great beer to drink in the summer while sitting outside under a shaded tree, reading a book.

Pours a medium clear amber forming nice size off white foamy head from 22 oz bomber. Aroma of citrus and pine resoins with hopped forrest air. Flavour was of citrus hops, with a slight malty ending. Easy drinking and enjoyable beer. Would love to try on tap.

22 oz. bottle from CelticBrew - thanks Jim!/. Clear orange/amber under a small white head that settles quickly. Some substantial caramel and toffee aromas, and a big citrus hop hit, with some suggestions of pine. Medium body, light carbonation, resinous, and just a generally very nice mouthfeel. Flavor echoes the aroma, as a sturdy malt base provides balance for the grapefruit bitterness. All in all, a very nice IPA, well balanced, not overly hoppy.

22 oz. bottle coutesy of Hannot. Thanks Todd! Pour is a nice copper/gold. Decent, creamy looking head. Aroma of citrus, grass and grain. Slightly bitter, earthy. This seems to be more malty than most IPAs but pretty refreshing. Medium bodied and smooth drinking.

Bottle... Poured hazy orange with a frothy head. Aroma of floral hops. Dry palate with strong hop presence but not overbearing, followed by other woodsy, spice and herbal flavors. Really smooth, it was served at near room temperature and it was really tasty.

22 oz bottle from Liquid Solutions. Pours hazy amber with a smallish off-white head that leaves a bit of stringy lace. Aroma of ripe citrus and peach, very pleasant and inviting, with floral notes and hints of pine. Flavor is faintly toffee, with more of the citrus and ripe summer fruits, crisp hop profile with hints of evergreen and lemon zest, along with a spicy astringency in the finish. Medium body, lightly carbonated. Nice, very drinkable and enjoyable IPA.

Very solid flavor and aromas. Lots of citrus and herbal hop aroma. Medium palate, and a cloudy yellow beer. Medium sweet malt, and quite bitter flavor with more citrus and grapefruit.

Clear golden pour with thick white head, grassy aroma of cirtus and hops. Sharp piney initial taste that smooths out into a nice bitter grapefruit finish. Smooth beer with medium body and light carbonation on the palate.
