Mongoose IPA - Hale's Ale - Seattle Wa


So, this beer smells really good. not quite as inviting as the snake river, but good. You can still catch a whiff of the Hops off of it. It's surprisingly sweeter than the first two, but still very good. still very hoppy. This reminds me more of the red truck in that it really hits you on the side of the tongue rather than all over. Very golden in color rather than the ruby of the Red Truck. I feel that it is sadly lacking on the back end.

A fine beer, I doubt I would make this a regular in my arsenal of beers, but if I ordered it in a bar, I would not have been disappointed.

Highish hop content, I would call it about a 3.25 out of 5.

As for overall quality of the beer, I would go probably a 3. A fine beer, but it wouldn't make my recommended beer list.
