Tommyknocker Pick Axe IPA

Quite a bit lower on the IBU scale than IPA and A Half, but the hop bitterness seems more biting than that 80+ IBU beer. Pick Axe was formerly named Pick Axe Pale Ale, but it seems anything that's not a porter or a stout gets called an IPA these days. Pick Axe pours a light copper color, with a small, one-finger head. Piney character to the hops, with some pineapple and mango rounding things out. Pretty decent brew, although I'd still call it a pale ale!
