Lift Bridge Batch 500 Double IPA

Lift Bridge Batch 500 Double IPA, Lift Bridge Brewing, Stillwater, MN. 8.5% ABV.

Appearance: hazed, crisp amber, nearly crimson, lovely lasting head of snow-white foam.

Aroma: yeah, that's the stuff, that's doing it for me. All the citrus, the lime and grapefruit, and plenty of the prickly pine. Alluringly bitter nose. Love it.

Taste: Once more, on the palate, and off the tongue, it's more of what you want in your double IPA. The fruit, the bitter, the citrus, the spice, with plenty of malt to keep it held down tight. Ah! Lip-smackingly delightful. Medium body. Easy-drinking. Refreshingly bitter. The alcohol level steers clear of being …wait, no, there it is.

Nice one, Lift Bridge.
