Philadelphia Brewing Newbold IPA: 21

Taste: 6 Finish: 7 Visual: 4 Aroma: 4
Total: 21

A good whiff of roasted malt and honey. Creamy head with a bit of lacing. Good amber color. But after the pour it's slightly flat which gives it a mellow mouth feel. Nice big cream flavor upfront. Good roasted malt. A moderate amount of hops in the back. But there is no bite from the hops. No grapefruit or florals. I would say it's a very smooth IPA. Good flavor but not bold or overbearing. Slightly more hops than a Sam Adams. More of an "everyday" IPA.
