Summertime Flashback

Lookout IPA

Gateway City Brewery

6.5% Alcohol

Hot day, cold IPA. I’m a poet and I didn’t realize it.

Not an ISA but an IPA, with the 6.5% ABV to prove it. TMA (too many acronyms). Look out, its 6.5%. Nice pour, good looking beer. Frosty glass with a bit of condensation running down the side. A pretty pint for sure.

I enjoyed this IPA while tending to the BBQ.* By the time it was done so were the steaks.

Good tasting IPA. Easy drinking, a bit of bitter but less than many IPAs that’s for sure. Oddly enough it seemed to get more bitter as I finished it, opposite to what I usually experience. It was a very hot day so maybe as the chill wore off the bitter took its place? Not sure what thermodynamic formula calculates cold versus bitter in a beer but the calculation is beyond the capability of my slide ruler. Forget any fancy science, if I drank two of these brewskies and I wouldn’t be able to calculate a tip for the bartender, let alone do any calculus. They have a bit of a kick to them.

Good traditional flavourful and well balanced IPA.

*Editor’s Comment: More acronyms. This is getting a bit acronymonious. LOL

Reviewer’s Comment: The beer was a bit acrimonious and your jokes are LOL (lame on lame). The only thing funny about that joke is that you think it is.

Final Rating: A Well Calculated 15 out of 20
