Founders All Day IPA

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

12oz bottle pours with a crystal clear copper body that supports a thin white head of foam. The aroma has a nice mix of mango, peach and tangelo fruitiness floating on top of some spicy dank hops. The taste delivers pleasing levels of hop bitterness supported by mild hop flavor and a perfect amount of maltiness. It has a good dose of bitter to resiny tangelo and grapefruit mixed with dank onion like spicy hops flowing slowly into the semi sweet malt base and then smooth citrus hop flavor. The largely bitter citrus hops run the flavor from front to back. This is a well executed session IPA where the hops are firm and bitter but are well supported by just the right amount of body and thin ribbons of malty sweet notes. Oh yeah, this will do.

355ml can into glass. Aroma is like a big cartoon hand coming out of the can and smacking you in the face! In the glass only slightly less amazing. Floral, citrus, it smells like a grapefruit convention. Slightly hazy amber beer with thin head. Thin white head. Chalky medium body mouthfeel. Finish is lingering. Starts slightly bitter with a touch of malt then the grapefruit is back. It’s really excellent but not my taste for a session.

35,5cl bottle from Meny, Ringnes park. Pours clear, deep golden with a white head. Hoppy aroma with citrus, pine, malt and hints of tropical fruits and honey. Moderate to medium sweet with nice fruity and hoppy flavours and a fairly dry and bitter finish. Nice, refreshing and certainly sessionable.

Thin white cap thats short lived, little lace. Clear, copper hued brew. Nose is light, fruity with peaches, oranges, grass and a hint of pale malts. Body is light, nice carbonation, some pocket change, easy. Dry malt flavors, biscuity and lil grainy followed by a slight hop poke,lil citrus, light pine, faint metallic notes that are ok. Dry, lightly fruity finish. Very nice quaffer at a session-able ABV. Wish it was available to me. Props to WeisGuy for the trade!

The beer poured a slightly hazed orange-gold colour with a bubbly white head that lingered a few minutes. The aroma is pine, tropical fruit, cereal grains, caramel and earthy hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is not very well balanced. There is a hint of sweetness from the caramel and tropical fruit notes, but for the most part, this is a very bitter beer.

Slightly hazy, golden-orange with a warm cap, long lasting with very nice lacing. Lots of citrus in the nose with oranges and some mild tropical fruits. Fresh hops, fresh all-around. Flavours of fruity malts with the hops. Nice grassy notes that grow a dryness. Stronger alcohol content than most Session IPA I know, so this gives an overall closer to normal brew feel.

Bottle. Colour - cloudy orange gold, off-white cap, not very big, lacing was 'just alright'. Aroma - biscuity malts, light spices, and definite notes of grapefruit and orange. Mouthfeel - medium bodied, well carbonated. Flavour - nicely balanced between the biscuit maltiness and the bitter citrus hop punch. Not as bland as I was expecting it to be.
