Bengali Tiger

IPA from Sixpoint Brewery in Brooklyn (New York), now sold under the name Bengali, originating in a 2004 homebrew batch whose orange head left tiger stripes on the glass. Big tropical hop character in the opening, a clean palate, and a dry finish; oat flakes give it a silky texture, and Mandarina Bavaria and Amarillo hops provide a strong citrus note without lingering bitterness. Bitterness: 66 IBU. Available year-round.
