Shipyard Brewing Co. - Fuggels IPA Review




Type: IPA

ABV: 5.8%

Color: Translucent orange(deep dark) with an average head that is quick to disappear.

Aroma: Lemony floral nose that you pick up with a deep inhale. Normal breathe is subtle and average.

Taste: Hop is underlying, compared to the malt. Not an appropriate character of an IPA to me. Some lemon essence comes from behind the sweet and the alcohol.

Overall: Not great but not all that bad. Seems lost at identifying itself. More malt sweet that than hop bitter, and not in a good way. Alcohol is too previlant and the end is basic and lingering.

Score: 7.0/10
