Pike IPA

12 oz bottle. Not bad. Full of floral, grapefruity hops with a nice dry malt backbone. Pours copper/tan with minimal head. Has a aspirin bitter aftertaste.

12oz bottle. Orange-tan color, filtered assumably. Hops and alcohol aroma. Lots of chewy hop character. Excellent WIPA. Orange nuances in there, as well as some fresh hop characteristics. Classic Seattle beer.

Quite a nice, standard west coast IPA. Orange body with well balanced hop bitterness and citrus. Dry finish with a relatively light mouthfeel.

This orange pour is loaded with hops which you notice as soon as it wafts over to you. The flavor is bitter and it has a dry finish.

Bottle from Market of Choice in Ashland, OR. What can I say about this one? It’s you’re typical IPA with a slighty above-average taste. Citrus and piney hops, but it had an underlying bitterness that wasn’t good. Eh.

12oz bottle. hazy orange pour w/ thin off-white head. aroma is sweet malts, floral hops and bread. oily medium texture. strong caramel malt flavors with citrus hops. lightly bitter on the finish. well balanced. k-7.5

Bottle. Very cloudy auburn/orange color with a small, thin, white head. Bitter flavors and smell, quite typical of a west coast IPA. Peppery spice and very long lasting bitterness in the mouth. Aside from the finish, this is a solid, if a bit simple IPA. Solid.
