10.15 - There Is No Name..

I know people who know people...

well.. that IS true, but this was just given by a friend who happened into cases of Cody..


Cody Brewing Co - No Name IPA
a 5.5% ABV  IPA..  it's a bit old.. (January 2013, I believe..) but I've had older.  Let's see if it held up.. Incredibly orange in color with very little head.  Heavy, thick, sweet orange peel nose.. caramel malts, brown sugar, toffee..  it's a thick nose for sure.. but overly sweet, with a faint pineapple/tropical hop note.  For the taste.. yeeeeech.  This is like orange extract.  all sweetness and fruit, zero hop.. basically zero carb. Some IPAs.. when they're 'old' and faded, you can get glimpses of what it could have been..    This.. no.  it's so unbalanced, skewed toward fruit..  Points for free beer.. points taken away for just not being good.  Win some, lose some.  But I got a tick out of it..
