Another IPA from the blue building at Golden Road is in cans now, Ride On IPA at 6.4% ABV is supposed to have notes of melon and pine and be perfect for skateboarding. Will I find that, or something else?
Ride On pours a light yellow with a rocky head of foam. The aroma hits me as honeydew melon and spice. So, yeah. The description matches my tastebuds. Additionally there is a hit of grapefruit juice that is almost rubbing alcohol-esque. But that rises and fades pretty quickly. This IPA seems a little more viscous than biting on the tongue. Which is not what I was expecting at all. It is certainly an IPA that is less like most of the market for sure. I would label it as a change of pace IPA.
