Medicine Hat Brewing Co. Stand Tall February Frost – White IPA at 6.3% ABV | 53 IBU (C$4.14 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 12-Feb-2020, acquired 27-Feb-2020, reviewed 3-Apr-2020)
Appearance: hazy straw with two fingers of fluffy white head, excellent retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: coriander, orange peel, oats, white pepper. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter, moderate peppery spice. (6/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate-soft carbonation, off-dry mildly spicy finish. (3/5)
This is a tough style to get right, and all things considered this one is not bad, but it’s a bit too heavy handed on the spice. By the end of the pint, the spice has pretty much blown out everything else. (13/20)
