Maine Beer Company Lunch

Maine Beer Company Lunch is an American IPA. I had been hearing a lot about how good this beer was, so I want to give a big thank you to Lee for saving this from his first trade box to share! (You can hear us gush about it on episode 32 of the BDR podcast) Pretty much lives up to the hype in my opinion. The smell of this beer is right up my ally, big tropical fruit notes that I could sniff for hours. The taste is less tropical but still great, bigger flavors of grapefruit and pine hops dominate. Not to far on the pine (i.e. onion/scallion) which I appreciate! The malts are doing their job quite well by adding some sweetness in the background and all of this big flavor leads to a nice dry finish. This is an outstanding IPA, go drink some. That is an order!
