Warehouse Brewing Company Anonymous Tip IPA – American IPA at 6.2% ABV | 63 IBU (C$4.45 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 11-Dec-2020, acquired 3-Mar-2021, reviewed 16-Mar-2021)
Appearance: pale amber with two fingers of fine ivory head, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: caramel, citrus, pine, rye. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, building bitter mildly warming finish. (3/5)
Really old-fashioned, with caramel vying for dominance over citrus and pine, and emphatic bitterness on the tongue. Nothing wrong with it as such, and there’s an interesting little spicy rye note that saves it from being a total snooze-fest, but really not a lot to recommend it either. All told, perhaps a bit better than just OK. (14/20)
