Triple 7 Summit IPA

Brewed by Triple 7 Brewpub at Main Street Station
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Las Vegas, Nevada USA

Serve in Shaker, Tulip

Draught at the brewpub. Probably my least favorite of their beers so far (13 at this point). Pretty normal looking and smelling IPA with citrus hops. However the flavour had some SHARP bitterness and finished with a strange medicinal note. Really tough to characterize but not something typical of a nice IPA.

5 oz sample at the brewpub. golden with a thin white head. nice citrus hoppy aroma. citrus and grassy hops with some lightly malt notes. this seemed like a fairly decent IPA untill the finish which was harsh and medicinal. I’m fairly certian this was a brewing problem and wasn’t suposed to taste like that, but it was the only sample i actually didn’t bother to finish.

Draught at the brewpub
Golden color. Finally a drinkable one in this brewpub, with aromatic and fruity hops, resiny, and the body is quite malty.
