Dragonfly IPA from Upland Brewing Company

A few posts back, I mentioned that Wifey and I drove out to Evansville, Indiana to pick up some beer that we can not get in St. Louis. We have quite a few to choose from now! One of the beers that we picked up was Dragonfly IPA from Upland Brewing Company. Wifey likes dragonflies so she picked up a six pack. I was informed that I should check out Upland Brewing Company beer since they are in Indiana. I found Dragonfly IPA and picked up a six pack. Neither one of us knew that the other one grabbed this beer. We walked out with a 12 pack. Oh well.

This beer pours a nice orange color. I would say that the aroma is pretty balanced between the malt and the hops. It was not overpowering at all. The taste was kind of similar. There was a balance between the malt and the hops. There is a slight citrus taste and a bit of pine also. There is not a lot of bitterness to this beer. The malt is slightly sweet to add to the flavor of the hops.

I would say that if you are not in to IPAs or you think that IPAs are too bitter, then this is one you should check out. I would call this a gateway IPA.

I am a bit of a hop head so I will give this beer 3 hop flowers.
