Clown Shoes Beer Bubble Farm American IPA at 6.5% ABV (C$4.00 at Collective, 355 ml, packaged on 21-Nov-2018, acquired 31-Jan-2019, reviewed 5-Feb-2019)
Appearance: hazy deep gold with one finger of fluffy ivory head diminishing gradually to a thin cap and ring, moderate spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: juicy citrus, biscuity caramel, grass. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium slightly creamy body, moderate carbonation, off-dry lingering bitter finish. (4/5)
There’s nothing really wrong with this one, but it’s a bit of a disappointment from Clown Shoes. I mean, it’s sort of hazy, and sort of juicy, but doesn’t really break any new ground. If it were from a new brewery, I’d call it a fine effort, but I expect more from CS. (14/20)
