Rubicon IPA, brewed and bottled for Rubicon Brewing Company by Sudwerk Privatbrauwerei Hubsch, Davis, California. 22 oz. (1 pint, 6 fl. oz.), contains 6.5% Alcohol/Vol. Fresh water, the finest malted barley, selected hops & pure cultured brewers yeast. Rubicon Brewing Company, Sacramento, CA.
Very hazed, bright orange hue, small, slimmed white head.
Aroma: pithy, pungent, plump with citrus and pine. This one spews out aromatics, a vibrant nose full of everything hoppy. All the things we love in hops are in attendance, bitterness, with a splash of sweet.
Taste: Bam! There it is on the tongue and all over the palate. Grapefruit, lemon, lime, mango, bristling pine needles, on top of a mellow malt base. Prickly bitter hop character remains large and in charge. Abrasive at first, then cool and easy. Take another sip and it's back on the attack.
