LAGUNITAS FREAK OUT! INDIA PALE ALE

Slightly suspect malt-sweetened IPA pays homage to Frank Zappa’s superlative Freak Out! album. Though nowhere near as monumental, or for that matter, spicy, as its tributary masterpiece, sticky sunset orange-hued elixir shelters floral spruce-tipped hops with pleasant nectarine-peach tang. Argumentatively, stylistically closer to citric-perfumed Pale Ale than smoky English-styled ‘India’ tag implies. Instead of expectant wood-burnt accents, toasted almond and pineapple-mandarin orange illusions coat chocolate-caramel malting.
