Beer of the Week: Fisherman’s IPA
By Mike Payne
Fisherman’s IPA by Cape Ann Brewery arrived this month thanks to our friends and beer donors over at The Microbrewed Beer of the Month Club. Fisherman’s IPA pours a rich, golden amber with a thin-to-medium head that leaves light lacing as it recedes. To the nose, this pale ale has the earthy, hoppy scent you’d expect from the style, albeit a bit on the lighter side. Fisherman’s IPA has the slightly bitter approach of a classic IPA, rounded out with citrus, caramel and a smooth hoppy finish. It’s going to be a nice weekend, so we suggest ordering up a six pack of this stuff, calling over a few friends and grilling up some fresh Salmon with lemon, butter and dill. It’ll match this (or any other good IPA) bottle like destiny. StyleCrave Rating: B-
