Wicked Weed What She's Having

Wicked Weed Brewing Co.   Asheville, NC

Notes:
I.P.A.
6.3%

Appearance:  Pours a maizey, straw color...fairly transparent, i do see a few bubbles every so often...as it was a bar pour, i don't have too much head on this, just a wispy, off white cirrus cloud to really speak of...a couple swirls brings some life...

Smell:  A lightly malted, grassy aroma springs from the glass...not overly complex, very grassy hop bitterness dominant...

Taste:  Much like the nose, with grassy hop flavor standing out up front...there is a light pale, grainy, light caramel malt balance that really makes this an easier drinking brew...this is a real daytime drinker...if i took a guess, i'd bet there are some German malts in this...the more i drink, the more it tastes like a Heineken...

Mouthfeel:  Light body with medium carbonation...fluffs up bringing grassy and light lemon bitterness to the palate...very smooth and crisp, this brew flows across the tongue very gently, inviting more to follow...

Overall:  This is another solid brew from Wicked Weed...the flavor did wear on me a little over time, but it still went down easily...

Score:
(3.5/5)
