Deschutes Brewery Iversion IPA

The final beer in my Deschutes Brewery series.  This is their year round American IPA, can't wait to give this guy a try because I absolutely love the way they brew their hoppy beers.

Aroma - Piney, citrus, resiny hops.  There is a slight sweetness from the malt in the background.

Appearance - Beautiful amber.  Brilliantly clear.  Rocky off white head that laces as you drink.

Flavor - Pleasant hop bouquet, very piney, citrus peel, grapefruit, herbal, and floral, but not as intense as I was expecting.  Next you come to a hearty malt backbone; dark caramel, toasty, and biscuity.  Finishes with a nice firm hop bitterness.  No off flavors.

Mouth-feel - Medium-full, slightly .  This is the only downside of the beer, in my opinion, not as drinkable as some of their other beers.

Overall - A decent IPA.  The hops are there, right in your face with a firm bitterness.  I think that this one might be a little aged.  It comes across a little too sweet and the hop aroma and flavor are on the low side.  I'll have to try this one again.
