Arcadia Ales IPA, Arcadia Brewing Company, Battle Creek, MI

From the label I was reminded of peachy fruit that lead to a slanted flavor adventure. In the frozen glass I smelled a spicy fruit that, when the glass warmed up, was a phantom. I shut my eyes and tasted again after I had reset the olfactory (at least when I tried again anyway). There I found an enjoyable bitter that the first impression from the label lead me away from in disappointment. Although the satisfaction in the flavor was quickly realized, it was discovered that the label should replace its current yellow, with the beautiful amber color you find when pouring into a clear glass. All in all, a good book with a lousy cover.
