Fear the Hedgehog
Right Brain Brewery
Traverse City, Michigan, USA
6.2% abv
$7.99 a bottle
1pt 6oz bottle
Simcoe hops
Appearance: light amber with golden highlights; one and a
half finger bone white head; the second half of the bottle I got the sediment
off the bottom of the bottle and the color is not as shiny – it is a deeper
amber color with no golden highlights; the head seems to be a little sticker
leaving some lacing on the glass
Aroma: you can smell the floral hops when you open this
bottle and it is just as nice in the glass
Flavors: floral on the delivery; prickly pine on the mid and
finish; white grapefruit like bitterness swirls all around; grainy slightly earthy
malts underneath; saltine cracker with a dash of fine grind black pepper

| The second half of the bottle |
Mouthfeel: sharp prickly pine; scratchy wool texture; light
moderate carbonation; moderate bitterness; lingering pine and grapefruit like
bitterness on the palate
To the Point: a pleasing IPA; nice aroma and flavors; easy
drinking IPA
