Day 33: Jockamo IPA


Name: Jockamo IPA
Brewer: Abita Brewing (Abita Springs, LA)
Classification: American IPA
Alcohol: 6.5%

Thoughts: Abita is a pretty big brewery, at least it is bigger than most of the craft breweries that I have discussed on this blog. However, when you try to drink and review 365 beers in 365 days and you go to a bar instead of a store you are sometimes left with little choice. On this occasion this was my only choice. It's not a bad choice, but not a very interesting one. Jockamo IPA pours a coppery-gold color with a thin head. The aroma from this brew was piney, sweet, and caramel. It wasn't very interesting. The taste was a little harsh at the fore front. It did present bitter hops and bready malts with a little bit of citrus mixed in. Again uninteresting. That's what this beer was. It wasn't overwhelming, it wasn't empty, it was just mediocre. That is all.

Rating: 79/100
