Pantown 1917 American IPA

Pantown 1917 American IPA.

6.5 % ABV, 66 IBU. Pantown Brewing, St. Cloud, MN. 


Clear, bright golden/amber, large and luscious creamy white head. Looking good. 

In the nose: Ah, hoppy delights aplenty. Citrus and spice and everything nice. Classic American IPA aroma. 

In the mouth: Zesty, citrusy, and appropriately bitter. Tons of flavor boarding the palate this time. Rich maltiness is here, too, some caramel, a touch of toffee, but the hops are truly in charge, lots of citrus and pine. This is strictly an old school recipe, made from people who know. It's just a little juicy, what we used to call malty, with moderate bitterness. All in all, a classic IPA that we just don't see enough of anymore. 

Made with plenty of Amarillo, Cascade, and Centennial hops, because, America. A traditional style with the color and aroma that you expect from American IPAs.
