Minoh - WIPA (double IPA) - Osaka - 9% - 1/2 pint - @ The Cat & Cask Tavern:
Taste: Layers of sweetness: raisins, dates, sugars, syrups, hint of red wine, hops are present but drowned out- you taste them in the background.
Smell: Honey, syrup, alcohol whiffs, faint trace of malts & hops.
Looks: Almost purple in color, deep violet brown, no head, no lace.Verdict: Tastes so much more like a barley wine than an IPA. The quality in ingredients is definitely there, but I could never recommend this to someone thirsting for an IPA. This is a nightcap beer with its extreme sweetness and high ABV.
