Upheaval IPA by Widmer Brothers Brewing Company
This is a very complex IPA with 6 very different hops in the mix Upheaval IPA by Widmer Brothers Brewing Company is one of the more complex IPAs I’ve ever tasted and at 7% ABV and 85 IBUs it would not be recommended as a starter but could easily help finish the night. This hazy light copper colored brew with nice head retention is very smooth even with such a high IBU and moderately high ABV. This is lovely Northwest IPA contains Alchemy, Simcoe, Chinook, Willamette, Brewer’s Gold and Nelson Sauvin hops with a much simpler malt recipe containing only 2-row pale, wheat and caramel malts. With so many hop additions you can easily expect strong hints of grapefruit and other citrus like orange and lemon but you will still have hints of tropical fruits and some very mild floral aromas with a nice subtly bite.

A Night On Ponce IPA by Three Taverns Craft Brewery
“Belgian Inspiration. American Creativity” really does say it all for A Night On Ponce IPA by Three Taverns Craft Brewery as this is an amazing craft beer. This American IPA is based on A Night In Brussels IPA but Thee Taverns Brewery swapped out the Belgian yeast for an American ale yeast and the results is amazing! The amazing Belgian inspired IPA pours a wonderful golden color with a large white foaming head and has smells erupting from it of the most classic IPAs with aromas of citrus, tropical fruits and pine. It tastes even better than it smells with a light hint of caramel mixed with citrus and tropical fruits with hints of floral aromas with each sip. It’s beer like A Night On Ponce IPA by Three Taverns Craft Brewery that make you want to try more great craft beers from Three Taverns Brewery. At 7.5% ABV with 69 IBUs this is on the stronger side compared to most craft beers but it is worth every sip and I plan on grabbing a 6 pack of A Night On Ponce IPA by Three Taverns Craft Brewery to share next time I am in Georgia. Plus I am dying to try Three Taverns’ White Hops Belgian-Style White IPA which is currently chilling for the weekend.
