Oskar Blues Brewery Pinner Throwback Ale – Session IPA at 4.9% ABV

Oskar Blues Brewery Pinner Throwback Ale Session IPA at 4.9% ABV (C$2.92 at South Trail Calgary Co-Op, 355 ml, no bottle date or best before)

Appearance: clear pale gold with two fingers of rocky off-white head, good retention and patchy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: resiny pine, citrus, tropical fruit, pale malt. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Medium-light body, moderate carbonation, moderate duration bitter finish. (3/5)

Decent. Smells pretty good, but taste drops off rapidly. Which, I guess, makes is all the more sessionable. (14/20)

7/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
