Super smooth and fruity would be the best way to describe this thick and hoppy IPA. It is much more mellow than the traditional IPA in that the hops are predominantly a flavor component rather than the back of the throat bitter that some customers are accustomed to. It may not look quite like a milkshake, but the beer sits heavy on the tongue and is a great desert to any pub fare.
