Cabin Brewing Company Season Pass – American IPA at 7.5% ABV | 65 IBU (C$4.72 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 13-Oct-2020, acquired 30-Oct-2020, reviewed 1-Nov-2020)
Appearance: clear pale gold with two fingers of loose white head, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: zesty citrus, resiny pine, stone fruit, pale crackery malt. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry lingering building bitter mildly spicy finish. (4/5)
A straightforward old-school West Coast IPA that avoids being predictable or boring by the simple expedient of being excellently implemented. Hopped with Chinook, Columbus, Simcoe, and Amarillo, and exhibits pretty much all of the expected flavour profile. Works for me. (16/20)
