Serving Type: DraftABV: 5.8 percent
Appearance: Whitewater IPA had a beautiful straw color, with a decent amount of haze throughout the body. The head was almost the thickness of two fingers and that was without assistance from nitro. I've been very critical of Sam Adams brews recently, but I give credit where it's due. This beer looked amazing.
Smell: Most say they get a sense of hops from this beer. It was a different experience for me. I caught plenty of citrus, mainly orange in my nostrils. It was very appetizing. Rarely do I have my mouth water by simply smelling something. This was one of those times.
Taste: I got plenty of hops on the back of my tongue. Those hops tend to hang around in the aftertaste. The citrus does an alright job of balancing out the flavor, but isn't as effective as I want it to be.
Overall Rating:
I've had a few bad experiences with Sam Adams with artificial flavoring and such, but this was a pleasant drink. Went pretty well with the meal of fried pickles and pulled pork tacos I had, too.
