Great IPA

This is a great IPA from Deschutes. They're probably my favorite all-around brewery due to their consistently fantastic brews. Inversion has a well-balanced hoppy kick and fairly smooth mouth feel. It has a very pleasant citrus aroma and great refreshing citrus flavors of orange and even grapefruit. This is a great summertime beer and leaves you looking forward to the next one!
