The Good IPA
An IPA named for the only thing it needs to be. Blue Point's take on the American IPA leans juicy over piney — citrus zest and stone-fruit hop notes sit on a bready, biscuity malt platform. Not chasing any trend, not particularly loud about itself, just a well-drawn, all-day IPA. Which is, in fact, the good IPA.
