Day 119-Beer 119 Racer 5 India Pale Ale, Bear Republic Brewing Co. Cloverdale California
Hopefully my beer blues are over. Even though this one is a BEAR, I'm a little bullish on it. It poured a hazy golden/orange colour with nice head and left very nice lacing and lots of effervescent carbonation bubbles. The aroma was citrus, grapefruit, hops and a hint of sweet malts. The taste was hops right up front that settled into a well balanced taste of bitter hops, grapefruit and malts that then left with a nice hops finish. Overall a clean crisp well balance drinkable IPA 3.9 out of 5. If you enjoy IPA's you might want to RACE out and get one.
