Jai Alai IPA
On tap at Village Whiskey, Philadelphia. PA (9/10/10): A: The beer appeared a really nice dark, deep orange with a nice white head, which had decent retention, some nice lacing and noticeable carbonation rising to the top of the glass. S: The aroma is very good, mainly citrus hops with a light hint of the malted barley to not make the hops completely over-powering. T: The taste follows the nose quite well. It had a very nice full IPA flavor. Citrus hops very much at the forefront, followed by a nice hint of pine hops perhaps. For all of its hoppiness, it is not too bitter, as the slight hint of malted barley balances it out nicely. The beer had a nice medium body feel to it, but perhaps a bit on the heavier side. The beer had very nice carbonation. The beer was very easy to drink and the higher ABV was masked nicely. I wish that I could have taken some home with me as no one in GA sells the stuff. Overall, a fine example of an American IPA.
