Goose Island IPA

A Chicago IPA is today's offering from Goose Island which has some great beers and I first found out about when I lived in the midwest.











Appearance:

Golden straw colour with a nice head, strange floculents in the bottle, very flat crystals

Aroma:

Flowery hops with orange in the background and a touch of maltyness.

Taste:

Creamy texture flower hops that are very bitter with a touch of maltyness in the background. The finish is long dominated by an iron tasting bitterness, with some orange tang and a faint malt hint.

Overall:

A very bitter US IPA, full of flavour but probably better in the summer than today's Arctic wind!

7.0 /10
