The United States led the world in hops production in 2015, surpassing Germany for only the third time ever, and the majority of these hops were poured into Ithaca's Flower Power India Pale Ale . . . of course this beer is highly rated on BeerAdvocate, because it tastes nothing like a flower, and everything like Pine-Sol Multi-surface cleaner; I give it a big thumbs down for three reasons:
1) it doesn't taste very good;
2) when I drank three of them, it gave me a stomach-ache;
3) it cost me 14.99 for a six pack;
but, in case you want to give it a try, here are some of the positive descriptions culled from BeerAdvocate reviews:
1) piney tropical hops flavors;
2) the taste follows the nose;
3) an airy white head that lasts before heavy lacing;
4) heavy tropical flavors, including guava and coconut;
5) hazy honey hue;
6) residual astringent hop bitterness;
7) looks a bit like an orange snow globe in the light.
