Two Hearted Ale by Bell's Brewery
Available year round in 6pk bottles ($8.49) AND NOW 4pk cans ($9.99)
Beer Style: IPA
IPA or India Pale Ales are beers that focus on bitterness and hop profile. Originally made with extra hops to withstand long sailing trips they have evolved into a "cult" beer style in the USA with many breweries producing them.
Appearance: Huge two inch, light amber-ish, yellow in color
Aroma: Just smell those centennial hops! Pine, citrus, bread, malt, alcohol
Taste: Somewhat piney hops, lots of grapefruit, lemon, solid malt profile
Mouth feel: Very smooth and citrus tastes
Overall: I had heard from the can this beer tastes like it was poured on draft, I must agree. It is a solid IPA, well balanced with citrusy hops and malt. Two hearted is a must try for anyone curious about IPA's.
