Magic Hat Brewing Dream Machine IPL

Doesn’t that bottle opener look sick?! So Dream Machine India Pale Lager is a tasty beer it really is let me tell you. ABV 5.7% and IBU 50. Folks this beer is part of the American Amber Lager/ mixture of IPA as well. This is a 12 on the SRM scale which is a fancy acronym for color. This is great beer folks it really is with tasty kind of spiced hop presence and a nice malt backbone. This is THE best IPL that I have had never mind it is also the only one. Most IPA’s follow the standard citrus/ pine paths but this one treads somewhere else entirely. As I said earlier the spices follow more of a spiced taste that actually comes off very well with the malt in the beer. The mouth feel has a nice crisp bite that screams IPA and makes it very refreshing and drinkable.

Now pairing this beer is going to be interesting, because it is essentially a hybrid beer. Lots of different variables. Something like sushi that has a light fish would be good. Roasted chicken as well would go with the spiced aspect of the hops. Not our Beertv pairing is a spicy sausage that went great. The heat from the sausage was amplified by the hops in the beer and the carbonation of the beer really helped cut through the fat and grease of the sausage.
