Long Hammer IPA on a summer evening

August 6th, 2008

I cracked open the promotional bottle of Long Hammer IPA the other night and enjoyed it while sitting out on the back patio.

I didn’t do a formal review this time around, but I can definitely say there were juicy hop notes, enjoyable toasted malt character, and it’s easily drinkable on a hot day. I still stand by my original review in saying that I think it’s light for an India Pale Ale, but despite that it’s a competent, well-crafted beer.

   I like Longhammer for the simple reason that it’s an IPA that’s finding it’s way into many macro tap selections. Can’t knock that.
