Samuel Adams Latitude 48 IPA
Consumed May 28th, 2010. Coppery colored brew with an off-white head. Piney hop aroma is present, but restrained. Smooth caramel malt flavor up front, followed by surprisingly strong pine hop note. The contrast of the two flavors, while not especially earth-shattering, is quite enjoyable. Mouthfeel is slightly creamy and just dry enough to finish well. I was surprised by this one - Samuel Adams always makes a quality product, but I was expecting a tamer, less tasty brew.
