India
Pale Ale 6.3% ABV
Brewed
by Cutters Brewing Co. Bloomington, Indiana
Background: Cutters is a new, upstart brewery
located in Bloomington, IN. They are looking to expand into other areas around
Indianapolis. This is one of their 4 year round beers.
Appearance: It pours a deep amber color. This bear
has about 1 inch of creamy white head. Solid head retention throughout the
drinking process.
Aroma: Sort of a grassy, earthy aroma. Hints of
citrus and hops are mixed in.
Taste: Very fruity and citrusy up front. Very
different for an IPA. The hops aren’t overly profound in this beer; not too bitter.
It drinks pretty smooth, and it has a pretty dry finish.
Overall: I would rate this beer a 70/100. This is not one of my favorite beers that I
have reviewed so far. It is not a bad beer, just not what I was expecting out
of an IPA. It was very fruity up front, where as with a typical IPA you get the
hops up front. It is more of a hoppy fruit beer than an IPA in my opinion. This
is a beer I could enjoy out around the pool, but I would not personally
classify it as an IPA.
