More Moro Blood Orange IPA by Funky Buddha Brewery
More Moro Blood Orange IPA by Funky Buddha Brewery, need I say more? More Moro Blood Orange IPA by Funky Buddha Brewery is an amazing fruit ale with lots of crimson red fleshed blood orange complemented with caramel malts and grapefruit flavors from the added hops. This is a very different IPA even at 80 IBU it isn’t overly bitter and even the 7% ABV will creep up on you as the citrus flavors are really the biggest flavors with tons of strong blood orange, a good hit of grapefruit with mild scents of pineapple and tangerine with the compliment of the caramel malts it’s a very smooth IPA bursting with citrus flavors. Pours a beautiful deep copper color, almost blood orange but a bit frothy but seriously still a great brew.
