O’Creek Brewing Co. Route 117 – American IPA at 6.5% ABV

O’Creek Brewing Co. Route 117 – American IPA at 6.5% ABV (C$5.13 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 5-Jan-2024, acquired 2-Aug-2024, reviewed 5-Aug-2024)

Appearance: hazy deep gold with two fat fingers of fluffy pale ivory head, excellent retention and heavy soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: tropical & stone fruit, citrus, resiny pine, cereal grains. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry medium duration finish. (4/5)

I don’t think I believe the numbers on the bottom of the can (“240105”) are actually the date code, because this doesn’t smell or taste like a six month plus IPA.  Juicy, pleasant, and easy-drinking. Works for me. (16/20)

This will be my 5,902nd unique Untappd check-in.

8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
