Dankosaurus IPA

Dankosaurus IPA came to me via my man J. It's an India Pale Ale from the Cedar Creek Brewery in Seven Points, Texas. The 355mL can doesn't list a percentage, but does indicate the the suds inside contain 70 IBUs. The website says 6.8%, so that's pretty respectable.

This East Texas ale is hazy, orange-gold in colour, and pours with a thick fog of creamy head. It has a fairly standard West Coast IPA aroma; rich in bitterness and tinged with juicy fruit notes. The flavour is a bit more remarkable, though, with citrus notes that are actually fairly tart, but still bitter and enjoyable.

For an IPA, I found Dankosaurus to be a bit light on the crushingly bitter tastes I was craving. However, it was still quite flavourful and tasted reasonably well made. Would buy again.
