Deschutes Chainbreaker White IPA

20140813:
Today at Yard House, I start off by ordering a Deschutes Chainbreaker, which was $3.50 instead of the usual $4.25 for a shorty (9 oz).


The beer has a nice citrus, wheat, lemon smell. The taste is light and easy. I would describe it as lemony. 10:31PM PT

Deschutes is taking you into the next beer frontier. Brewed with wheat and pilsner malt; this IPA displays beautiful citrus aromas from Cascade and Citra hops that meld with the esters of Belgian yeast. Think thirst quenching hopped-up wit beer with enough IBUs to warrant the IPA name.
