Lickinghole Creek Nine Mile IPA

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Can from LCBO. Pours an average size foamy white head and has a hazy golden orangey appearance. Lively carbonation. Decent sticky lacing. Aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, pineapple hints, some herbal and floral notes. Flavours are quite fruity, mostly tropical notes, a little bit juicy as well. Pineapple is somewhat noticeable. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Mild bitterness. Not too bad.

Pours a light hazy golden colour with an amber hue. The frothy white cap is average and leaves some thick foamy-creamy lace. Fruity nose with some oranges, grapefruit peel and hints of tropical fruits. These last fruits show up even more in the taste, over the citrus. Even some coconut seems to smooth things down, but the bitterness does increase in the finish. A nice dryness is created because of this. I even feel pineapples in here. Not sure what they are going for in this one, but a different kind of IPA, that has some juiciness to it. Kind of mixing three IPA styles with the Milkshake one as well.

The beer pours a hzed straw gold colour with a generous white foamy head which quickly recedes to a fine white film. The aroma is bready malts, some nuts, some tropical fruits, and toast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is grainy malt, some tropical fruit notes, and a mild bitter hop finish. There is also a weak caramel note that just lingers on the tongue. Another ‘not a bad’ beer. From the LCBO.
