Year of New Beer: Tap Room 21 IPA, World Brews (CA)

Written By: Dion on 11/15/2013

In an effort to be fair and balanced in my beer journey, I decided to try one of the "pseudo"-craft beers available in the Mix Six department at Kroger. Could I possibly find a decent gateway beer to help create another convert? In short, NO! At least not tonight. Meager floral hops and sickly sweet malts on the nose, some bizarre artificial fruit on the tongue and maybe some ginger? No hop bitterness to be found. Sad part is, I've got their Amber Ale downstairs in the fridge. Surely they can't screw that up. Oh well, this one is going down the drain to be replaced by something a little tastier.
