Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA

The Fresh Squeezed IPA is an Oregon based craft, coming from Deschutes Brewery.  With 6.4% abv this IPA doesn't pack the punch that my past reviews have, but it makes up for it in its satisfactory flavor. 
Fresh Squeezed IPA drips with juicy, citrus flavor and aroma thanks to an extravagant amount of Citra, Mosaic and Nugget hops. An unimposing malt profile of Pale, Crystal, and Munich malts allow the citrus stars to shine making a delightful, easy to drink IPA that dares you to have just one.
This brew was formerly exclusive to the brewery’s Bend and Portland Oregon brew pubs, but this year, the beer will be available across 25 states in six-packs and on draft.  Lucky for us PA is in this group.
  • Bitterness - 4
  • Unique Factor - 5
  • Strength - 2
  • Foam -5
  • Clarity - 3
  • Price - 4
With a total score of 23 Fresh Squeezed IPA is a clear winner.
Verdict: Draft

Response to Open Thread

I am excited about all the responses on the open thread asking about your favorite beer.  It is now evident that not one of my readers has bad taste in beer.... they were all great picks!  Unfortunately, there was no clear winner of the next beer to review on Draft My Craft, but your comments have given me some beer choices to review in the future.  I am particularly interested in the Allagash White; I have heard of this brewing company, never tried this beer so look to see that review coming soon.
