Brews From the Six: IPA

At just 6%, the as-yet-unnamed IPA from The Six Brewery is understrength for the style, but it has a lovely copper colour and a lustrous off-white head. The unadorned 500mL bottle poured nicely, and its contents gave off an agreeably juicy, fruit-focused scent.

Tropical fruit was the most prominent flavour note—sweet, but not too much, with subtle piña notes and a solidly dank and dry bitter vibe.

 

This was an agreeable, easy-drinking IPA with a lot of charm, but an unfortunately low-test percentage. If this stuff was 7+, it’d have been a big winner. As a 6% jobby, it is nice, but a bit light.

 

Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
