Bent Paddle Pordij India Pale Ale Rotator Series #8: Robusto. Simcoe Cryo, Amarillo, Centennial, Sultana.
6.6% ABV, 68 IBU. Bent Paddle Brewing, Duluth, MN.
Clear, amber-hued, slim white head.
In the nose: Citrus and spice. Grapefruit and tangerine.
In the mouth: Popping with hops. Medium-bodied, easy-drinking, well-balanced. Malt flavors outweigh the minor bitterness. Smooth stuff, with plenty of hoppy flavor. Citrus notes abound. Refreshing and likable IPA.
Every Pôrdij leads to new adventure! Just as a portage takes you to a new body of water, our Pôrdij navigates the ever-changing currents of the IPA style. Robusto India Pale Ale piles on a massive hop load, enough to bear down on anyone's shoulders. Despite the added weight, the bitterness is kept at bay, with some "old school" hops bringing a robust nostalgia to the mix. Pôrdij Robusto IPA gives that freshly traveled paddler a nod of encouragement to get back in the water and paddle forth!
