Sly Fox Warrior IPA

Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Poured from growler, an attractive copper-orange-red - a crazy melange of many colours, different shades would ripen at different stages. Some white trim rounding out the edges. A cold shot of hops off first swig. Dominated completely by the warrior hop. Easy drinkability. Some soft malt in the back. The hops really cut a crisp impression in the mouthfeel. Taste is slightly short-lived as an abrupt bitterness cuts the flavour short. Highly quaffable. The only (minor, hardly valid) critisism I might have is to say that this beer is slightly one-dimensional, which is to be kinda expected from relying on only one hop. That said however, it MUST be clarified that this is a completely undiminished beer, well fine to stand on its own and considerably well rounded. I only wish I lived closer to a brewpub capable of this! Yet another big thanks to Dr.Jay!

[Cask] Poured a hazy amber color with an off white collar, leaving no lacing on the glass. Aroma of malty caramel, candy sugar, pine, citrus fruits, and some pineapple. Taste of more caramel malts, grassy hops, tart citrus, with dry, bitter grapefruit, and light alcohol in the finish.
