Description:
Acme IPA is profoundly hoppy, finished with over a pound of fresh whole hops per barrel. The result of this generous hopping is a beer that is deliciously dry, and eminently drinkable in spite of its apparent strength.

Appearance - 4.0
From the bottle it pours 2 fingers off white head with great retention. As it fizzles down it leaves loads of lacing. It is a pale golden orange in color and is slightly cloudy.
Aroma - 3.0
Sharp floral hops on the nose, but not much else.
Mouthfeel - 4.0
Light-medium bodied with a smooth creamy feel and low carbonation.
Taste - 3.0
Some toasted malts in the front followed by some earthly hops leaving a slight bitterness. Not as hoppy as the aroma would lead you to believe. Not a whole lot going on in the flavor department though.
Overall - 3.5
Not a bad IPA, and easily drinkable. I'd put it just above mid-range, as there many other better ones out there. I'd still drink this one again, however.
