I have here the fifth beer of
The Best of a Mixed Six-Pack. This fifth beer is Founders Brewing Co., All Day
IPA Session Ale, 4.7% ABV and 42 IBUs. Founders Brewing Co is up there in Grand
Rapids Michigan. The idea behind All Day IPA is that with the lower IBU and ABV IPA
is something that you can drink all day long. Not that I think you should, but
I think they mean you can have many and share with friends and such. All Day
IPA pours a copper orange color with a one and a half finger of brilliant white
that fades a semi-quick pace and leave some lacing behind but nothing really to
right home about. Aroma is quite pleasant with nice wooded aroma with earth and
pine with some grapefruit notes and faint hints of some bitter orange. All Day
IPA has a clean taste of earthy light grapefruit flavor with a touch of pine
and bitter hops and balanced out with some grain like notes. Mouthfeel is on the lighter side with an easier quality about it. The finish is
smooth and clean for an IPA with enough stratifying bitterness. Aftertaste is
much like a sessionable IPA should finish with nice fruited bitter notes with
bites of earthy pine. This is one easy drinking IPA, and I think it deserves an
A+. I would say this is an IPA you give to someone that has yet to try an IPA. All
Day IPA is a gateway to the IPA style if you will. It’s well balanced with nice
flavors. I highly recommend Founders Brewing Co., All Day IPA Session Ale. But is
this beer the Best of a Mixed Six-Pack? Keep it here to find out soon! Cheers!
Please enjoy responsibly!
