COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Meadowlark IPA is a new juicy and floral hoppy ale we brewed to celebrate the flavor and spirit of American craft brewing. This 7% alcohol beer has a sunny orange-gold colour, 60 International Bittering Units, a smooth mouthfeel and layers of soft flowery hops. We wove fragrant Citra and Bravo hops from the Pacific Northwest with intensely fruity Galaxy hops from Australia. The malts are English pale & crystal, flaked barley with malty highlights from Munich malt and Roast Barley. The resulting patchwork is as “American” tasting as short ribs and slaw, and provides an excellent accompaniment to that kind of food too!

Poured from a 22 oz bottle. Cloudy straw color. Pure white head rises and then settles to a film. The initial aroma is intense citrus (lemon) and pine, and then it softens once it breathes. Medium bitter, slightly sticky, just the right amount of carbonation, and very refreshing. Pretty Things Beer and Ale Project has a winner in this one.

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of saxo. Pours golden with a slight haze and a white head. Fresh, citrusy hop accents in the nose. Medium body, a sweet fruitiness but the solid and crisp hops soon take over. A little dusty perhaps. 050413

Strykzone (3810) - Wood River, Illinois, USA - APR 3, 2013
Sampled at Dice’s going away party. Hazed honey golden. Flowery hops with caramel is smelled. Passion fruit, too. Finky fruot is going on in the flavor. Bitterness that is big but not obtrusive. Citrus hops, honey, and big malts. Almost a double and flavorful enough to be one.

JorisPPattyn (7297) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - MAR 21, 2013
Medium, just yellowish head with some lace, fed by finely pearling pale copper-amber beer. Very (muscat)grapey hops (beautiful!), cane sugar, exotic fruit. Maybe a tad unidimensional, but impressive all the same. Bitter-hoppy-fruity. Difficult to add more. Exotic fruit, but bit metalllic, quinine-like bitterness. Not very well-bodied; spritzy and just a bit watery. Well - it’s an outspoken IPA. If you’re looking just, for that, it’s near-perfect.

Bottle shared by Joes. Hazy orange color, small white head. Smell malts, hops, pine, sweetish fruit. Taste malts, pine, hops, bitter and lightly fruits. Medium body and carbonation. Nice.
