Sisyphus He Is California IPA

Sisyphus He Is California. India Pale Ale. 6.3% ABV. 80 IBU. Sisyphus Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.

Clear, bright golden hue, ample ivory froth atop.

In the nose: bold citrus tones, plenty of grapefruit, orange, and pine. Lovely citrus and floral notes abound.

In the mouth: Full body, rich fruity malt mouthfeel. Hop-forward, delightfully delicious, mild in the malt, but extraordinarily drinkable. Plenty of ripe citrus hop flavors, grapefruit and orange, with a dose of pine, too.

I dig this one. I dig it lots.

This West Coast IPA was brewed for our friend John Craigie to celebrate his second concert at Sisyphus. 100% of proceeds from each pint will go to Hopewell Music Cooperative North. John is California, this beer is California, you are California? Nah, you're not California.

Flavors: Pine, spruce, fir, other coniferous trees
