Long Trail IPA


Long Trail is one of my favorite Breweries, and their new IPA doesn't disappoint. It is also the first non-wheat unfiltered beer Ive seen.

looks: opaque orange, like a hefeweisen

smell: hoppy, bitter and slightly sweet

taste: a nice crisp blast of hops hits you at first. Its not as biting and overpowering as some IPAs Ive had. You can taste a number of different flavors there. It mellows out nicely through the middle and after taste.

overall: excellent! This is definitely one my favorite beers, and it might be my favorite IPA(I look forward to doing a taste-off with stone IPA) It has a unique flavor, which I find quite good, and its unfiltered which as a weisse lover, is definitely a plus in my book. Overall a great beer
