The Brü Revü – Alesmith IPA

The Alesmith IPA is another San Diego beer I had smuggled back from our vacation that I was looking forward to trying.  I have read a lot about the Alesmith brewery and how great all of their beers are, and their IPA lived up to all the hype.  Alesmith’s IPA is bottle conditioned which poured a hazy golden copper with a great fruity aroma.  What a great hoppy beer flavor without being too extreme.  It has some malt in the background to give it a good balance and keeping it easy to drink. The Alesmith IPA gives the Ballast Point a run for its money as my favorite IPA period and I would consider them #1 and 1A.  I hope it makes its way to Texas soon, as I need another one!
