Elysian Space Dust IPA. 8.2% ABV, 73 IBU. Seattle, WA and other places, I'm sure.
In the eye: slightly hazy, bright golden color, vast white head, looking good, leaving lace.
In the nose: fresh blasts and citrus and pine, not too fruity, nice and dry.
In the mouth: Bitter bite starts it off and slides all about the palate. Bone dry, this, stripping the tongue, ready for the new swallow. Medium body, light malt presence, holding down the fort just barely. Hops are shining in this one.
My kind of IPA. I can have a few of these and be happy.
TASTING NOTES
The hopping is pure starglow energy, with Chinook to bitter and late and dry additions of Citra and Amarillo.
MALTS
Great Western premium two-row, c-15 and Dextra-pils
HOPS
Chinook, Citra and Amarillo
