Flight 3/4 clears the center of the surface off the foam but a neat silky creamy lace ring adorns the sides. Now we have a silent olfactory presence! Whaaat?? Okay, let me sip. Not bad for an IPA. As if remote Bourbon hovered in the back of my mouth? This is a "Bourbon rye IPA" but what does it mean then? Bourbon barrel used somehow here? Idk. But now that I concentrate on this more carefully, I find faint vanilla, graham cracker, pale malt, dry grass, orange peel, lemon pith and cantaloupe. Feels light-medium to medium, a bit crisp, faintly tropical and even juicy. Somewhat dry and drying, too. Quite professional! I'm surprised!
