One more review before we get to the #FWIBF ones that I will sprinkle throughout the rest of January. This is Head Over Heels from Rob Ruben’s Distillery and Brewery. I found a bottle of this IPA at Sunset Beer before I knew that the El Segundo based brewery was bottling. HoH pours a dark orange color. Initially pine aroma that has a sub-layer of some citrus. Woodsy taste on the first sip. Pretty good bitter bite overall. But that woodsy/earthy note dissipates and I am left with something that is a little too heavy and a little too carameley for my tastebuds. Nothing about this popped out but it holds on to stay in the middle of the pack for this crowded style.
