Exploring Cigar City Brewing’s Jai Alai IPA
Cigar City Brewing’s Jai Alai IPA is a delightful craft beer born in Tampa, Florida. Let me share some details about this flavorful India Pale Ale:
Description:
Jai Alai IPA is a bold, citrusy, and balanced beer that pays homage to the traditional game of Jai Alai. Native to the Basque region of Spain, Jai Alai involves players launching a ball from a curved mitt called a “cesta” to outsmart their opponents on a court called a “fronton.” Similarly, this IPA involves six different hop varietals generously used in a 7.5% ABV beer.
Tasting Notes:
An intense bouquet of tangerine and candied orange peel entices the nose. Flavors of clementines, Valencia orange, and subtle caramel provide a counterpoint to an assertive bitterness and rich malt character. The bold hop flavor and aroma from six hop varieties take center stage in this flavorful American IPA.
Awards and Ratings:
- 2012 Best Florida Beer Championships: Silver Medal (American India Pale Ale)
- 2013 Best Florida Beer Championships: Bronze Medal (English-style India Pale Ale + American)
- Untappd Overall Rating: 99/100 (as of December 2023)
