COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A traditional India Pale Ale, light bodied, golden-amber in color with an intense hop aroma produced by dry-hopping during fermentation. A very tasty ale with little bitter aftertaste which makes it great on a hot day.

Location: Draft at the Brewpub, 6/20/11

Aroma: The nose is fairly hoppy, with some pine, citrus, as well as floral notes
Appearance: The pour is cloudy and orange with a decent off-white head and some lacing
Flavor: The flavor is lightly sweet up-front, good hop presence, with an appropriately bitter finish
Palate: The body is medium, with a fairly creamy mouthfeel, a touch sticky, with a fairly dry finish
Overall Impression: In my attempt to become the number 1 rater of Little Rock beers I have just ticked my 2nd brewery! So I’m sort of kidding here, but I have tried what maybe Little Rock’s only 2 breweries now, so that’s fun. As for this beer, it was actually a very solid IPA, I was a little surprised, I wasn’t expecting it to be this good.

Braudog (4473) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - DEC 27, 2010
Draft at the brewpub. Orange color with a large airy head that stuck around for quite a while. Tangy citrus all the way with this one. Light in body, but a pleasantly refreshing drink. Did I mention tangy? (#4043, 12/16/2010)
