Avery IPA - Colorado

This beer was golden in color as you can clearly see from the photo; I had a bit of trouble discerning the scent of the beer. It was very weak. Once I poured it into a pint glass, there was a little more aroma of the hops there, but not a lot. The first sip of this beer screams cinnamon to me, which belongs in an Xmas ale, not really an IPA IMHO. This beer screams on the front, and has a really subtle finish.

1 or 1.5 on the Hop Scale
2 on overall drinkability due to the cinnamon flavor.
2 as an overall beer.

it's worth noting that Julie disagrees with me on the hoppiness. Says it's higher than I indicated.
