beer_name: Raging Bitch Belgian-Style IPA
text: 12oz. bottle poured into a tulip glass. It pours a deep rich copper color with a nice lingering off white head There is a distinct mixture of some floral noble type hops with a nice sweet malt character balancing it. The Belgian character is evident but not overwhelming. I'm also picking up just a little alcohol burn as well. The first thing I tasted was a heavy floral hop presence; almost like rose petals or something. At the end there is some Belgian yeast flavor but pretty restrained and not as much as I was expecting. There is also a little bit of alcohol taste as well. The mouthfeel seems just a little slick. This is my second example of the style and with a name like 'Raging Bitch' I was expecting something to hit me in the face. This is a pretty restrained beer and while I enjoyed it a lot I was really hoping for something to knock me over in hops and Belgian character.
