colors of the season

A nice red IPA, joyous and bright!  It's not quite winter temperatures right now, more like mild fall, but lights are up in the major streets and ads all over remind us of the season.  Red Point IPA covers one seasonal color; maybe I should go out for green tamales.
There's a sharp but unassuming citrus in the scent and the color is orangey tan.  The head isn't excessive, but leaves a nice white cap.  It's all IPA in the taste, full bitter and clean tasting, refreshing and bubbly.  There's no build-up of bitterness or a change for the sweet while drinking the glass down.  The ale flavor is constant and balanced.  It feels like an all-purpose beer, one that works on its own or in company.  Something spicy might go well with it, in fact.
Those ink cartridges are green, I swear!
