Brewery: Old Schoolhouse Brewery (Winthrop, WA)
Beer Name: Ruud Awakening IPA
Beer Style: IPA
ABV%: 7%
Price: $5.99 / 1 pint 6 oz
Gold color with a hazy clarity. Pour results in two fingers of coarse bubbled head that leaves fine lacing down the full glass. Aroma gives heavy floral hoppy scents with hints of grapefruit but very clean smell. Strong piny hop flavor with hints of citrus and bitterness. Very fizzy mouth feel, light and smooth with a hoppy punch in the middle that carries through the end. Bitter finish. A very nice beer, great for a spring day. CW thought it was TOO hoppy and wouldn't be able to finish a full pint.

ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it, JJ. There was a tasting held at Bottles our local beer haven. The brewer wasn't there, but his folks were and they knew so much about the process. Within 15 minutes, the place was packed and 22 oz bottles were flying out the store.
