Sixpoint Bengali Tiger

IPA

Maybe it was the long day and the afternoon at Brooklyn Brewery that put me in the wrong place to rate this beer. I don't think it stacks up the way most seem to think.

A: Cloudy, amber orange with minimal head (from pour) with no staying power.

S: Yeast - fruity esters with some hops and orange citrus.

T: Deep hop bruiser with a good kick. Great orange and grapefruit. Very heavy.

M: Nice lively carbonation with hop pucker.

D: Being honest - this beer is a bit much for me. Maybe, as I mentioned above, the earlier day-trip to BRooklyn Brewery was part of it, but something tells me there were too many hops and not enough malt to back it up.
