Radiant Summer Ale

Brother B and I select his beer from our fine local grocer. We are both fans of Ninsaki's Total Domination IPA and their Tricerahops Double IPA, so we thought wed give this beer a gander. As the photo's show, it's a good looking beer, slightly cloudy, red and amber and radiant like the label.

Ninsaki describes it as:

"Crisp and flavorful, Radiant Summer Ale is a clean finishing summer offering in the Ninkasi tradition. The smooth malt character is balanced by a elegant hop bitterness, the perfect compliment to a glorious summer day.

6% alc./vol. 40 ibus."

Brother B could not agree more. He said it was "clean" and "evenly bitter" and a "good summer beer."

I found the beer grew more bitter with every taste. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't my favorite.

Until next time,

may blessing be yours,
