Junkyard Simcoe West Coast Style Double IPA.
8.5 % ABV, 100 IBU, Junkyard Brewing, Moorhead, Minnesota.
Wait, what have we here? A West Coast Double I PA from Junkyard? Not a hazy, or New England, or Vermont-style? The kind of IPA I like? No shit. Let’s drink it!
Crystal clear, bright golden hue, snow white layer of foam.
In the nose: citrus and tropical, passion fruit and mango, orange and melon. I’m loving it.
In the mouth: hoppy blast bounces on the palate, with restrained bitterness and a jolt of the juicy. Light bodied and easy drinking, for the style. Alcohol hasn’t rung in too loudly…yet…nope, here it is. All in all, a noteworthy expression of my favorite style. I’ll happily enjoy this one again and again.
I’m not sure that I enjoy Simcoe all solo, but I’m not complaining, either.
Simcoe...yup!
