Oakham Ales Green Devil – American IPA at 6% ABV | 60 IBU

Oakham Ales Green Devil American IPA at 6% ABV | 60 IBU (C$5.79 at BC Liquor Stores, 500 ml, packaged on 31-Jul-2017, acquired 14-Sep-2017, reviewed 16-Sep-2017)

Appearance: clear medium gold with one finger of rocky white head diminishing gradually to a persistent cap, moderate lacing. (4/5) Aroma: tropical fruit, citrus, grainy malt, resiny pine, grass. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, high bitter. (7/10) Medium body, moderate carbonation, drying lingering bitter finish. (3/5)

Surprisingly hop forward, especially for a British interpretation of an American IPA. Tropical fruit and citrus dominate over a moderate pine and lingering grass. Decent enough, but not particularly exciting. (14/20)
