Town Hall Citracade IPA

Town Hall Citracade IPA. 6.3% ABV. Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery, Minneapolis, MN.

Clear, copper-y colored, slim white head.

In the nose: Nicely hopped, citrus and tropical tones aplenty. Malt flavor exudes aromatics from below the hopping. Nectarine, tangerine, lemon, lime. Very cool and lovely.

In the mouth: Bright and beautiful. Slight sweetness smashed up against bitter. Clean exit. Medium bodied. Tasty new twist on an IPA. Not enough to make the regulars put down their Masala Mamas. They'll try it on Happy Hour, sure. But they never forsake Mama, no, never.

There have been 137 Town Hall beers reviewed here in the Nib. More than any other brewery. And 399 IPAs, as of this writing. More than any other style. Not sure what any of it means, but I know I can count on the beers of Town Hall, especially when it comes to the hoppy ones.
