Goose Island, IPA

The Goose Island IPA was the first craft US IPA I'd tasted since starting to seriously and methodically try out different beer. I started with the english ales (favourites being Courage's Directors and Bath Ales Gem) and the taste in this IPA was very new to me. I think I was initially attracted by the bitterness and I remember my wife saying something like "It tastes like flowers". Anyway, it started a bit of an (expensive) addiction, and therefore this blog. So - thank you Goose Island!
