Butternuts Snapperhead IPA

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

Pours a nice clear golden amber with a thick, persistent, just off-white head. Aroma is not strong, a little hoppy and a little malty. Flavor is somewhat hoppy, not as hoppy as most IPAs I have tried, a little bitter, and a bit tinny - perhaps due to the can. Texture is fairly smooth but just a little fizzy, leaving a slightly hop-bitter, slightly tinny and barely tingly finish. Potable, but not the best.

The poured an orange color with a white head. Not much to the aroma but some citrus as expected. The flavor has some off taste, what the hell is that? Despite that some mild citrus shows up but very little bitterness. The description says this IPA has "balls" I don’t think so. This pretty much sucks!

Dave, whenever I have a bee in my bonnet... I find it helps to take my hat off."

"Meaning...?"

"Meaning I take my hat off, the bee flies out... do I need to draw you a picture?"

Nice orange pour with a decent head leaving some big chunks of lacing. Some carbonation. Piney, grapefruit hops aroma with a caramel malt sweet nose. Taste is hoppy bitter - pine and citrus - then offset by a slight sweet maltiness. Slight metallic bitter linger.

Characteristic dark orange pour with a good white head that hangs around. The aroma is a bit more caramelly and malty that usual but good background hints of pine and citrus. The taste is sweeter than an IPA usually is with a good caramel/milk taste and a nice hop bite at the end. So far, Butternuts brewing is 3 for 3 with me.

This was a pleasent surprise. I have been stirring clear of IPAs of late as they have all tasted bitter. There was no hint of that with this gem from Upstate NYThe balance of malt to hops was well done. Mild to moderate carbonation made for a good mouth feel. This could stand on its own as a cocktail very well.

The aroma was strong and quite hoppy and a bit harsh. The appearance was a very nice golden color with a thick, creamy head, which lasted forever. The taste did not match the aroma at all. In fact, it was quite smooth and not in the least harsh. There was a slight bitter aftertaste, but all in all very enjoyable.
