Outer Range Brewing Co. In The Steep – American IPA at 6.7% ABV (C$7.95 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 19-Jun-2024, acquired 23-Aug-2024, reviewed 25-Aug-2024)
Appearance: slightly hazy pale gold with one fat finger of fluffy white head diminishing gradually to a thin cap, spotty soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: tropical fruit, dank resiny pine, citrus, cereal grains, melon. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate-lively carbonation, medium duration finish with a hint of tart. (4/5)
Citra single-hopped. I’m not entirely sure about this one: there’s a small hint of sharpness here, sort of melon on the nose, and not quite tart, persisting through the finish. That said, I feel like rating it any lower would be a bit unfair. So, somewhat grudgingly, here we are. (16/20)
This will be my 5,917th unique Untappd check-in.
8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
