Beers similar to Defender IPA

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Defender IPA's citrusy and bitter character. Defender IPA began as the official beer of a comic convention in New York and is sold in Europe today as a golden IPA. A generous hop load gives tropical fruit, melon, mango and citrus, with a lime-like zest towards the end. Beneath it sits a light malt base with a touch of caramel that gives the beer some structure without sweetness. The hop bitterness is firm and well built, and the finish is markedly dry. Earlier versions were stronger and reddish in colour.
