MEL'S MAGIC IPA



Mel's Magic IPA, an India Pale Ale, by Iron Horse Brewery.

12 ounce can served in a pint glass.

6.8% abv.

The pour: mostly clear, slightly hazy, orange body with an off-white head.

The nose: bold orange, tropical fruit, butterscotch, and biscuit.

The tongue: citrusy bitterness, lightly biscuity maltiness, and the faintest edge of alcohol bit.

The mouthfeel: medium and solid.

This is some wonderful stuff. I was sad to see Cand Hannon no longer on the list of Iron Horse year-round brews, but Mel's Magic IPA is an excellent substitute.
