Samuel Smith's India Ale
Just poured this from a 550ml bottle. A- Cloudy pale orange color with a 2 finger head that lasts pretty well. S- Hoppy but with a strong malt backbone. Has a sweet aroma like candied fruit. T- Strong malty flavor and a nice hoppyness. Hardly bitter at all. I really enjoy the taste of this one. M- Slightly viscous with medium carbonation. D- Seems very drinkable, but I am not sure how many of these 550ml bottles I could put down! All in all, I find this to be a very nice example of an english IPA. Maybe not the best beer for the huge hop heads looking for a fix, but a really nicely balanced beer. I would definitely buy this again.
