2014 Advent Day 4

Hop Blanc (6.4%) by Peak Organic

This White IPA poured a cloudy light straw color with a thin head.


Now I am willing to admit that although IPA is not my favorite category, not all IPA's are created equal.  At the tail end of last year's advent calendar there was a Black IPA that I quite enjoyed.

This beer has a lot in common with a Belgian white beer, the Belgian yeast is certainly found in the flavor.  Very citrusy and it has that unfiltered white beer cloudy appearance.  This one is just hopped up a little more, but a nicely balanced hop that doesn't punch you in the mouth.

This is one of the few IPA's that I have enjoyed drinking, and I would actually enjoy one or two on a hot sunny day.  I give it a definite buy.
