Common Roots Brewing Company Good Fortune – American IPA at 6.5% ABV (C$7.35 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 25-Aug-2021, acquired 19-Oct-2021, reviewed 24-Oct-2021)
Appearance: hazy pale gold with two fat fingers of fluffy near-white head, excellent retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: juicy tropical fruit, citrus, pale malt, stone fruit, hint of pine. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium slightly creamy body, moderate-soft carbonation, off-dry short duration finish. (4/5)
Brewer’s notes call this a “modern IPA”, using Galaxy, Amarillo, and El Dorado hops. And yeah, this is a good example of the modern soft juicy style – lots of aroma and flavour, with very little bitterness. Works for me! (16/20)
This will be my 5,100th unique Untappd check-in.
8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
