Imperial City Brew House Milkshake IPA – American IPA at 6% ABV | 36 IBU

Imperial City Brew House Milkshake IPA – American IPA at 6% ABV | 36 IBU (C$4.09 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 2-Mar-2021, acquired 23-Apr-2021, reviewed 3-May-2021)

Appearance: slightly hazy pale gold with two fat fingers of rocky pale ivory head, excellent retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: sweet mango, vanilla, coconut. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium slightly creamy body, moderate carbonation, medium duration finish. (3/5)

Surprisingly good for what it is. I mean, yeah, it’s gonna cause purists to have seizures, but it’s actually not excessively sweet despite the aroma. I’m not sure I’d call this an IPA… or hell, a beer… but it’s not bad at all for a ridiculous abomination of a style! (14/20)
