Tamped down red-orange fruiting combines with celery-watered rustic amber graining above glass-candied pale malt pasting. A milder, less bitter, more centrist IPA.

KCBC INDIANA BONES & THE KIBBLE OF DOOM IPA
On tap at Kitchen And Beer Bar, floral-daubed blood orange tang conquers sour-candied lemon liming to its salty bleached wheat bottom.
GRIMM MAGNETIC TAPE
Vibrant pink and yellow grapefruit zesting invites tart mandarin orange zing and delicately resinous wood dankness above sugared pale malts, leaving lemony pineapple and peach daubs upon its upfront orange-candied grapefruit juicing.
SIERRA NEVADA DANKFUL IPA
Vague “generously hopped” medium body evenly spreads reluctant grapefruit-orange tang across mildly resinous pine-toned dankness. Pasty pale malt sugaring underlies underwhelming dry citrus hop oiling as candied peach, mango and tangerine snips drift off. Server to blue collar regulars.
NON SEQUITUR DIVE IPA
On tap at Ambulance, enigmatic waxy fruit-pasted West Coast IPA goes a tad off the beaten trail as gluey tongue coating corn syruping stubbornly upends dry citrus murk, mossy grain musk and dank hop resin.
HUBBARD’S CAVE FRESH ONE HOP IPA: CENTENNIAL
On tap at Kitchen And Beer Bar, lemony yellow grapefruit bittering envelops floral-bound Centennial hop herbage and mild resinous pining to contrast honeyed pale malt spicing of tidy moderate-medium-bodied semi-NEIPA.
SEVEN SIRENS / BLUEPRINT SMASHIN’ PASSION SESSION IPA
In collaboration with nearby Harleysville’s Blueprint, tart passionfruit adjunct gains salty lemon-limed acidity, gentle pineapple-grapefruit bittering and dank piney hop resin for sessionable hazy golden moderation.
902 HAVE YOU TRIED THAT KVEIK THO? IPA
Clean-watered Norwegian Kveik yeast provides crisply smooth bed for dry grapefruit-peeled orange rind bittering as mild juniper bite recedes alongside grassy hop herbage to contrast ancillary pineapple-papaya-grape tartness atop dehydrated mineral graining.
TEN BENDS GREEN FOUNTAINS INDIA PALE ALE
On tap at Growler & Gill, brisk tropical fruiting usurps tamped-down hop soiling and botanical juniper whim. At the dank cannabis-braised citrus finish, reliant grapefruit, orange and tangerine conflux and reluctant pineapple tang retain relaxed sedation.
STONE ENJOY BY 01.01.21 UNFILTERED IPA
Balancing “dank and fruity” hop varieties, unfiltered 9.4% ABV India Pale Ale maintains lightly creamed caramelization for intensified lemony grapefruit-orange tang and candied peach-pineapple-tangerine sweetness, leaving mild alcohol warmth on the smoothly clean mineral grained back end.
GOOSE ISLAND NEXT COAST IPA
Serviceable soft-toned light body brings lemony grapefruit-orange zesting to the surface as resinously pined grassy hop astringency politely contrasts pale malt sugaring. Tertiary mango, pineapple and guava tropicalia stays subtle.
FUNK VANILLA CITRUS INDIA PALE ALE
“Go to” IPA promotes grapefruit-juiced blood orange tang and zesty lemon prickle, but sweet vanilla adjunct lacks thrust over frail white bread bottom. Forget its ‘milkshake’ tag’ and call it a sessionable West Coast moderation instead.
