Ladies and gentlemen, what we have upon us a a very rare occurrence that must be taken advantage of to the greatest ability of your inner soul. I am talking of course, about an up coming three day weekend. There are very few holidays were it seems to be more appropriate to drink beer than this weekend. I know when I think about Memorial Day weekend, I envision camping which is clearly associated with campfires, hotdogs, and beer. Enjoy it regardless of what you do.
Any-hoo, this fine crafted IPA was created by Pelican Brew Pub in Cape Kiwanda. I've sampled some of their beers before, the cream ale is ridiculously delicious, and was excited to see this beer at Bierstein. The India Pelican Ale, as they call it, is considered one of Oregon's best made beers. This bad boy came in a 22 oz bottle and was an IPA fan's type of beer. Very bitter (85 IBU's) with Cascade hops dominating the bitter taste. A twinge of malty sweetness started the taste, but unless you have an appreciation for hops, and bitter beer, I would not suggest this one to you. However, if you do enjoy hops, this baby is jam packed with them.
Beermigos Rating: Onesy Brew. This beer is not for every one. But as I said before, for the IPA fans it's pretty darn good. A very nice spicy aroma, with a light white head to start, very crisp and Cascade hop dominant. 7.5% ABV so a 22 oz bottle can get you pretty buzzed.
