Elysian Savant IPA

Elysian has been playing around with hops in their new Manic IPA series. I’ve enjoyed the beers so far. I’ve reviewed both the Prometheus IPA and the Valhalla Red IPA. This beer features NW Pale, Munich, Cara-red, and Crisp 120 Crystal malts with Chinook and Nelson Sauvin hops.

Stats:
American India Pale Ale. 6.3% ABV. 66 IBUs. Washington. Limited Release.

Looks like a great Washington IPA. Coppery color. The head is just beautiful.

Smells like a great Washington IPA. Little bit of malt underneath that nice piney hop profile. Little bit of that grapefruit, orange thing going on.

Mouthfeel is nice. It’s a hair light on the body, but the carb is good.

Starts with grapefruit and orange and transitions to a nice grainy mid, hint of sweetness and a pretty legit bitterness on the finish.

It’s good. It’s just a solid Washington IPA and another good one from Elysian. 90 Points.
