Brooklyn East India Pale Ale


Style:English IPA
Alc %:6.9
Brewery:Brooklyn Brewery
Country:USA
Tap/Bottle?:bottle, 355ml
Where/When:Home, March 2012
Cost:approx $6
Rating:6.5

Nice white fluffy head. Nice orange copper body.
Bit of malt and a hint of citrus on the nose.
Quite a bit of spice up front that really has a sting/zing on the front of the tongue.
Not a bad balance here of malts and fruits- certainly not a hop bomb but fairly indicative of the style in my opinion.

I'm fairly sure I had this on tap at the brewery and I found this bottle more appealing. (Blast was more my cup of tea, but that has not been bottled, only on draft)
Not too bad, giving it 6.5/10.
