Beer-a-Day #171
I’ve only recently discovered this Virginia brewer, and my retailer had a bunch more styles in. IPA is probably my favorite style.
Northern Lights is an extra-special India Pale Ale that is available from January through April. Characterized by its full-flavored bitterness and floral aroma, a perfect blend of barley and hops make this a very balanced IPA. For the craftbrew connoisseur, Northern Lights is a deliciously crafted piece of the heavens.
Amber color with orange highlights; copious head. Loads of hops in the aroma. Grassy, grapefruity, spicy. Plenty more hops in the finish. This is a hophead’s beer.
