      On pour it had a nice head and I was ready to dive in. The smell of the hops were all over the top of the glass as the Face lifted it. The head retained well although the photo doesn't show it. On taste it's also the hops that are the star of this one. Pine and citrus tones hit you hard and echo on. With the oatmeal though the body of the beer is a little thicker. When it's in your mouth it tastes like a red ale, malty and earthy, not just a red IPA. My Mustache favorite list is getting outta control with beers like this one out there.
      This one reminds me of Cascazilla alot but still very different. A real delicious maltyness that Cascazilla doesn't have. Cascazilla though has a sweetness to it's maltyness that this one doesn't have. Loopy is an amazing ale that leaves this mustache again thanking the Face for what he does. I'm happy anytime Face pours it and splashes it on me.
