Review – I-10 from Intuition Ales

IMG_7561

This Jacksonville, Florida IPA from Intuition pours a bright orange color. Love the can design of the car and the facts on the reverse side but the silver needs to be muted to be read better. I really have to glare at the can to see the malt bill.  This is a very pine and dank type of IPA. No citrus here. No sir.  Many pepper notes as well that really spices it up. Heavy malt backbone as well. Didn’t appreciate the first can that I tasted but this tasted better or my palate is acclimating to East Coast bitterness levels.

Let’s Pour Brewery # 3 – Intuition Ale Works

For Christmas, I received gift codes to the Let’s Pour craft beer website so that I could buy to my hearts content or the max amount that I was given (whichever came first) and one of the breweries that I purchased a beer from is Intuition Ale Works from Jacksonville, Florida.

As you can see from the photo, they can their regular line-up of beers.  If I had seen the pale and coastal ale, I probably would have gotten those too to get the full flavor of this brewery helmed by brewer Ben Davis.

And if I was standing at the menu board in the taproom, I would pick the following two beers (and also get a beer popsicle, that they serve):

Dark Star Milk Stout

“A creamy and sweet milk stout brewed with English pale malt, flaked and roasted barley and English Crystal Malts. Bittered with Nugget hops, smoothed with 5% lactose. This beer is served with a Nitro tap and is non-vegan.”

Fish Camp Pilsner

“Pre-prohibition style Pilsner. Light and refreshing with a hint of crisp spice.”

Silvertown Ale

“A Kentucky Common cold fermented with a slight sourness.”
