Beer 002 - Mendocino White Hawk IPA

Drunk on July 20, 2010

Brewed in Ukiah, CA, bought at Trader Joes, Camarillo, CA drunk at home in Katy, TX after the gym.
The bottle says "This award winning brew is handcrafted to perfection. A premium American Classic from a Pioneer Brewing Legend."  The web site says they blended American West Coast Cascade Hops with a very generous dose of English Fuggle Hops. This combination makes for a very aromatic character, as well as a truly authentic English flavor which you must taste to believe. “Hopheads” will love this brew!

My own taste suggests this is a strong flavor but well balanced. The slight biterness on top of the tongue is countered by the smoothness of the beer as it slakes my thirst. A nice example of an India Pale Ale. Flavorful and easy to drink.
