10 Barrel Joe IPA

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

This is a piney IPA, and that’s never a bad thing. The pours is orange gold, very hazy, thin white cap. The aromatic story is all about the hops as all you get are pine, resiny notes, and citrus. The malt seems to have been shuffled to the basement. Flavour is the same, this is all about the hops, and not very well balanced.

Pours slightly hazy amber with a thick, frothy eggshell head. Aroma delivers resiny hops, zesty citrus, and subtle fresh malt notes. Flavor features more hops, more citrus - definitely grapefruit with a little orange - and not-so-subtle malt now. Mouthfeel presents firm, full body and lively fizz, leading to a nicely hoppy finish. Have a glass of this Joe.

Pineapple and vanilla in the nose.Pours a lovely soft gold with nice head and little lace, good retention. Mouth is quite full and a bit chewy. Flavor is citrus and some tropical fruit with a quite solid malt backbone. Nicely done, very good with Mexican food.

12 oz bottle. Pours slightly hazy copper gold with a medium creamy white head that retains well and laces the glass.

The aroma is tropical fruit and floral resiny hops.

The flavor is bready malts with sweet fruits and lots of very bitter floral resiny dank hops with slight onion. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with slightly sharp carbonation.

Overall, a very hoppy IPA but the floral onion doesn't work for me.
