Bert Grant's IPA
Pours a golden yellow with a full white frothy head, receding into a striped, bubbly lace. The smell is piney, but not overly so, and I get the sense that the hops are going to make it bitter. Yes, I was right; a good, tart, hoppy start with a fresh malty background. The finish, however, is sour, quite so, and that sourness lingers a long while--clearly the weakest part of this brew. Not a contender for my top IPA list, but a reasonable ale.
