Diamond (IPA Project #6)
on tap at khyber in philly Pours a clear burnt orange color with a fluff of white head resting on top. Dissolves to cloudy, filmy retention, leaving some patchy, streaky lacing on the glass. Citrus hops with pine and pith in the nose. Biscuit malt and bready notes with some light sweetness driven by caramel. Bitter and juicy with orange and grapefruit up front. Plenty of pithy citrus peel notes. Bready biscuit malt tones are pretty up front, with some caramel sweetness resting in the middle. Finishes with some tropical tones and lingering hop dryness. Medium body, decent carbonation, sticky and prickly on the tongue. A pretty good IPA, although not particularly memorable.
