Review: Smuttynose IPA "Finest Kind"

Smuttynose IPA "Finest Kind" from Smuttynose Brewing Company
Rating: A-

Pours lighter than I expected, more of a dark gold than an amber/orange. Good head and lace. Aroma is all hops, specifically very grapefruity. The flavor is very much along the same lines. I wouldn't be too surprised if someone told me grapefruit juice actually went into this beer. Bitter, citrus hop notes dominate throughout. Mouthfeel is good, drinkability is high. Worth coming back to again and again.

Serving type: bottle
