Year of New Beer: TriceraHOPs Double IPA, Ninkasi Brewing (OR)

Written By: Dion on 04/02/2014

Not as bold as I was expecting on the nose, but nice nonetheless as a good balance of citrus and pine rests on a slightly sweet, bready malt. On the tongue, the initial burst is a little raw and green, leaning almost to the oniony hop that I don't care for too much. Luckily, as the beer warms, more tangerine, peach, and apricot notes show up, as well as a touch of honey. Really nice as I worked my way through the bottle. Glad I got to try this one.
