Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale (2011)

Style:American IPA
Alc %:6.8
Brewery:Sierra Nevada Brewing Co
Country:USA
Tap/Bottle?:bottle, 375ml
Where/When:Home, March 2012

Rating:8/10

Nice off white fluffy head of approx 1 inch.
A nice vibrant orange colour.
I'm getting nothing on the nose- nothing. OK, not nothing but very little that I can put my finger on & say what i'm smelling.
A marmalade rich flavour followed with a lovely malt backbone and a nice hoppy finish- this is a very nice drop, quite balanced really as nothing seems particularly over the top.
It's not as amazing as BeerAdvocate.com would have you believe but I'm dead keen to get my hands on some more of these.
