RoHa Brewing Thursday IPA (Picked up at an Utah State Liquor Store in Salt Lake City). A 3 of 4. Pretty standard orange/citrus hop profile on this and a relatively clean simple body with a touch of caramel malt. Reasonably bitter in the finish.

Pure Moonlight Summit Hazy IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 4 of 4. Lots of stone fruit and other tropical fruit in the nose on this, and much the same in the juicy body. Quite refreshing and really resembles juice in places with a nice lingering juiciness on the palate.

Epic Barley Wine Ale (Picked up at an Utah State Liquor Store in Salt Lake City). A 3 of 4. Yep, this is a class English barleywine. Lots of toffee and dark fruit and bready notes with some alcohol that fades in towards the finish. The nose is mostly malty but there is a touch of citrus and resin, and this finishes on the sweet side, as you'd expect.

Harland Brewing Waiheke WC IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 3 of 4. Lots of citrus and stone fruit in the nose and juicy in the body. Relatively light in body and finishes nice and dry and clean.

Bewilder Brewing Big Crispy West Coast Pilsner (Picked up at an Utah State Liquor Store). A 3 of 4. Some nice light tropical and citrus notes in the nose and the lighter body is quite refreshing. Not too much to remark about on the body, just classic cracker malt character.

Fremont + Tarantula Hill Over the Hills Hazy IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 3 of 4. Nice pineapple and other tropical fruit in the nose as well as a nice mix of orange and pine, too. Medium soft body and medium bitterness in the finish that turns a bit resinous as it lingers.

Prodigy Brewing Inversion NE IPA (Picked up at an Utah State Liquor store in Salt Lake City). A 3 of 4. Relatively standard hazy IPA with tropical fruit and citrus dominant in the nose, and a body that's slightly soft on the palate with a similar profile. More bitterness than expected towards the finish, which is a nice touch.

Humble Sea Sunset Sesh TDH West Coast IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 4 of 4. Really big and bright in the nose with lots of orange citrus and tropical fruit -- just bursting with complexity. The body is clean and slightly lighter though plenty juicy. Quite refreshing and complex.

Ludlam Island Brewery Water Guns and Rainbows IPA on tap at the brewery in Woodbine, NJ. A 3 of 4. Nice relatively classic hop profile with orange citrus and pine/resin dominant, though some tropical fruit notes appear as well. Nice sticky lacing and hazy body with some lingering resin in the body as well.

Templin Familiy Brewing 210 IPA (Picked up at an Utah State Liquor store in Salt Lake City). A 3 of 4. Nice mix of citrus and tropical fruit in the nose on a very light and dry body. Quite high carbonation and refreshing on the palate. Not going to stand out of a pack probably, but the hop profile shines well on the lighter body.

Great Notion Northleft Hazy IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 3 of 4. Lots of orange citrus, some tropical and berry notes, and more dominate the nose of this. Relatively soft on the palate with a decent bit of juiciness that lingers.

[thedaily-beer]

Brü Daddy's Kickin' It Back IPA on tap at Yard House at King of Prussia. A 1 of 4. Something's wrong here -- very little carbonation or lacing, tastes oxidized, and only really some faint malt notes come through -- very little hop presence if any at all.

Salt Flats Brewing Tank Slapper Double Rye IPA (Picked up at an Utah State Liquor store in Salt Lake City). A 3 of 4. You do get some rye spiciness in the nose as well as some citrus and quite a bit of caramel malt notes. This is pretty big and malty and a touch unbalanced without as much bitterness as I'd prefer.

[thedaily-beer]

Beachwood + There Does Not Exist Elemental Existence IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 4 of 4. Nice big tropical fruit and citrus in the nose with lots of stone fruit and berry as well. Lighter, clean body with much the same fruitiness, and a dry finish with a relatively aggressive bite. Really great hop profile that grabs the wheel of this easy-drinking IPA.

Ludlam Island Green Gobbler IPA on tap at the brewery in Woodbine, NJ. A 3 of 4. Lots of bright tropical fruit in the nose with stone fruit and pineapple dominant, and the body is quite hazy and has some resinous notes behind it all, too. Not much carbonation and a bit sticky on the palate with some lingering herbal notes in the finish.

[thedaily-beer]

Saltfire Brewing Psycho Killer Juicy Pale Ale (Picked up at Harmon's in Salt Lake City). A 3 of 4. Nice orange citrus and some interesting stone fruit hop notes in the nose. Lighter body, as expected, though the citrus and juiciness throughout work quite nicely.

[thedaily-beer]

Crowns & Hops + Malibu Brewing We Love LA West Coast IPA (Picked up at Windmill Farms). A 3 of 4. Primarily orange citrus with some lemon and lime as well and a lighter, slightly hazy body. Juicy on the palate and clean, simple finish.
