Surly Brewing - Overrated! West Coast Style IPA
Overrated! is a West Coast style IPA from Brooklyn, Center, Minnesota's Surly Brewing. This particular can was canned on 5/8/2013. Comes in a 16 ounce can with the ABV clocking in at 7.3%.
This IPA pours a light hazy golden orange with 1-2 fingers of off white head. The head fades slowly with good retention and lacing.
The aroma is mostly grapefruit along with pine and resin as is usually the case in other West Coast style IPAs. There are also some lighter aromas of tropical fruit.
As far as flavor, grapefruit citrus dominates with the pine and resin towards the back end. Nice big hops with a hop bitter finish that lingers for a bit. Just under medium body with a semi-dry finish.
Surly's Overrated! is a solid representation of the West Coast style IPA and another great effort by Surly. It's not my #1 favorite West Coast style IPA or Surly brew, but is definitely worth drinking if you can find some.
Score: 4/5 (Untappd Caps)
