beer_name: Lake Placid India Pale Ale
text: Smells of sweet hops and hints of caramel. Pours to an almost opaque light brown with a light tan head. At first taste the carbonation seems high. The taste starts bitter, followed by a sweeter brown sugar flavor, the bitterness returns but duller and dryer and the final is a sweet aftertaste. This is quite a complex brew with 4 flavor stages. For my taste the bitterness is a little too flat as the hoppiness lacks citrus notes but for the stye of beer this is quite good.
