Beer Saturday
Let's cut straight to the chase Lil Twist is alright, but Elvis Juice it is not. For me Elvis Juice from Brewdog has that market cornered but I got this can as part of a 4 pack from Rye River brewing, So I said I'd put it through it's paces
Rye River Brewing Lil Twist Grapefruit IPA
Another Saturday, another IPA to taste and sure why not.
Here's what the brewery has to say about it.
What they say
A SMOOTH AND SESSIONABLE IPA WITH INTENSE AROMAS OF JUICY RIPE GRAPEFRUIT, TANGERINE AND PINE WHICH FOLLOW THROUGH TO A SILKY FULL BODY.
Beer Art
Not so much beer art here, more just design and it's grand, not fantastic, not shite, just grand. I do like the black can they use, as mentioned in previous posts.

Thoughts
This beer poured a nice golden orange colour into my trusted beer tasting glass. For a beer that mentions Grapefruit in the name, there wasn't a whole lot coming through in aroma or taste. Citrus and pine were the main aromas which I got.
As I often do, I Accompanied this beer with an Indian curry. Beer and spice seem to complement each other pretty well.
The Grade
2.25/5
