Humidor IPA
Cigar City Brewing Co.
3924 West Spruce St. Suite A.
Tampa, FL
Aroma: (10/12) 
Wow, cedar totally dominates! There are some hints of spices, almost like a saison.
Appearance: (3/3) 
Pure copper hued. This beer is bottle conditioned, so it pours a massive head. Highly carbonated.
Flavor: (15/20)
The first thing tasted is cedar. Heavy, heavy cedar! The hops briefly show themselves before the cedar regains dominance.
Mouthfeel: (4/5)
Light to medium body, pretty darn dry.
Overall Impression: (8/10)
I liked the uniqueness of this beer, but the cedar flavor way over-powered everything else. No balance of flavors. Totally masks the underlying IPA.
TOTAL: 40/50
