Three Floyds Pride & Joy

Three Floyds Brewing Company seems to have perfected the ability to over hop (dry hop) just about any style and have it come out really good or better. The unfortunate part of their popularity for well known American craft beer is my inability to get most of their offerings on a regular basis leaving a mere one hour drive away. It is across state lines but come on, give a beer lover a break.

Pride & Joy is an American pale ale that I have appreciated on many of occasions but not many as of late. A drive out the Three Floyds brewery after a day at the beach will cure what ails you.

Pride & Joy has a pleasant orange citrus and floral aroma that is balanced by a touch of sweetness hidden behind. The taste follows leaving little to no bitterness on the tongue, allowing for refreshing and drinkable brew. A nice beer that should have your attention. Enjoy!
