Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Mammoth Brewing Company Epic IPA.
I visited Yosemite the weekend after the 4th of July and picked up a few
Mammoth Brewing Company beers that I had yet to try (or review). Most of
their beers don’t make it to the Bay Area so I was happy to see such an
excellent selection of their beers. This is the second of the string of
reviews.
From the Mammoth Brewing Company website: “Hopped at two
pounds per barrel, our IPA unites a strong malt flavor with a wonderfully
intense aromatic finish. A favorite among the staff at the brewery so make sure
you can get your hands on it before they do!”
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours
a dark copper color with a nice tan head and nice lacing.
Aroma: Pine,
grapefruit, grassy and earthy.
Taste: Pine, citrus
and grassy hops balanced well with caramel malts.
Overall: I bought
a six pack of Mammoth Brewing Company Epic IPA and only one made it home for
pictures/review. At 6.5% ABV I enjoyed
knocking a couple back per night while camping and I’d most certainly pick some
up next time I see it. Now it is time to
plan another visit to Yosemite and this time over to Mammoth Brewing Company.
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
