110K+OT Batch #3 - The Other West Coast IPA
Pours a cloudy dark orange with one finger creamy eggshell colored head, good retention. Smell: floral, a little earthy and boozy in the back with a ton of tropical fruit upfront. Nice, but the sweetness upstages the loads of hops that must be in here. Taste: pineapple, ripe papaya. Orange citrus and a medium bitterness at the end of the sip. Again it's sugary sweet. Mouthfeel: syrupy, but I'd like a little more carbonation. The flavors are great and it's a nice hop profile, but it's all around much too sweet for me.
