The first week of "12 Days of IPAs" revealed a nice mix of geography and taste, especially as a respite from the scam "Christmas Vacation" advent calendar.
Unfortunately, the second week did not maintain that diversity, revealing these brews:
- Funky Buddha Brewery's Hop Gun
- Terrapin Beer's Depth Perception
- Motorworks Brewing's Pulp Friction
Two of these offerings are from Florida, and the other is from Georgia. The two Florida beers also featured grapefruit, which made this week a bit more challenging for me as decidedly not a grapefruit fan.
However, the Hop Gun did not overwhelm with the grapefruit and was highly drinkable, while the Pulp Friction was a bit milder. The Depth Perception was an imperial and hit hard at 9.1%, but tasted a tad flat and tart.
The first two week had a definite eastern flavor, so I'm hopeful that subsequent offerings go west, young can.
Cheers times deux.
