Ninkasi Total Domination IPA

Hazy orange pour, wispy white head with moderate retention and good lacing. Aroma is biscuity with distinctive spicy notes, oregano and Bolognese sauce. Sweet malt dominates the flavour initially before giving way to spicy hops, then a long spicy finish dominated by oregano and pepper notes. Full body, balanced carbo. Good.

Very smooth and lots of flavor. The color of this beer looked great too. One of the best IPA’s I’ve tasted.

22 oz bottle, via 5000. Pours a slightly hazy orangish gold body with a nice one inch foamy off-white head that showed nice retention. The nose is laced with floral hops with a bit of a citrus note over a lightly toasty and caramel malt base. The flavor is fairly bright, the hops are more floral and perfumy tasting than I was expecting for a West Coaster. There’s a bit of an orange rind oil bitterness to it as well, especially on the finish. Much more of a "balanced" IPA than I was expecting. Toasty and on the drier side as far as the malt goes, but this does have a little sweetness on the back end. Medium bodied with a lingering moderately bitter finish and soft fizzy carbonation. This was OK, but it was a bit of a letdown for me. I was looking for something a bit more aggressive than this.
