Hoyne Brewing Co. Hoyne IPA – American IPA at 6.3% ABV (C$7.38 at Collective, 650 ml, packaged on 30-Jul-2019, acquired 21-Nov-2019, reviewed 25-Nov-2019)
Appearance: clear medium gold with two fingers of rocky white head, excellent retention and moderate stringy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: caramel, tropical fruit, citrus, pine, earth. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium slightly oily body, moderate carbonation, off-dry moderate bitter finish. (3/5)
OK, but not really anything special. Definitely tends slightly old-fashioned, both in the hop character itself, as well as the hop-malt balance. (14/20)
