Samuel Adams Latitude 48 IPA
My Dad gave me a bottle of this beer to try. Seeing how I usually don't buy Sam Adams beers. Pours a deep amber and copper hues with a quick disappearing head, but good bubbling. The aroma is a earthy, woody, an caramel malty nose. You can smell the hop complexity of this beer. As well as the hop balance. The taste is well balanced, but of course leans towards the hoppy bitter sde. Caramel and biscuits combine with earthy, piney, and grassy hops. This is a simple, yet well rounded IPA. Light resiny palate from start to finish. With nice malty notes easily picked up as well. I've to say, Sam Adams dialed this IPA in pretty well. I must admit I'm somewhat biased against Sam Adams beer. But this is pretty damn good!
