beer_name: Titan IPA
text: 12oz bottle with a born on date of may 1, 2009 poured into my sierra nevada hop tulip glass. A- this one pours a clear copper colored body with a small light beige colored head. the head doesnt stick around too long but leaves rings of sticky lacing behind. S- the smell is very mild. caramel malts and grassy hops. not really what i was expecting. T- ah, ok. there are the hops. it starts out with sweet caramel and toffee malts. after that comes a refreshing blast of hops. lots of citrus and pine. nice and bitter. M- medium bodied. crisp, clean, and refreshing. moderately high level of carbonation. D- easy to finish and quite enjoyable. a few of these would be a fine choice, but its a little too strong to drink all night. the alcohol is well hidden. a pretty good IPA to have on the shelf all year round.
