REVIEW:

Appearance (5%): Poured a slightly hazy dark golden into a pint glass. White head; some lacing. 4.25/5

Smell (25%): Mainly floral and some dank. 4/5

Taste (40%): Balanced floral and berry experience, with some dank notes. 4/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, some carbonation. Slightly dry tongue. 4.25/5

Overall (20%): A great IPA. Parkway did a wonderful job with providing a more balanced approach to the American IPA. I enjoyed it even though I definitely prefer a more tropical feel to my IPAs. I would definitely try more beers from them in the future. 4/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.038/5
