Top Beers of May, Let’s Hear it for the Lupulin! Wine Enthusiast Reviews Full Sail IPA – 90 Points
By Lauren Buzzeo – Wine Enthusiast, May 26, 2010
90 Full Sail IPA (American IPA; Full Sail Brewing, OR); 6.0% abv, $8/12 oz 6 pack. A light peach color in the glass with a well-balanced nose of hop citrus, fruit esters and a solid malt backbone. The mouth is light-bodied with delicate carbonation; the palate has a good juiciness to it, like fresh grapefruit supremes, and a hint of pine on the finish. At 60 IBUs, this is not overly hoppy or overdone, showing great balance and excellent drinkability. Because of its subtlety, this would be a great choice for spicy ethnic cuisine.
