Commercial Description:
Acme IPA is profoundly hoppy, finished with over a pound of fresh whole hops per barrel. The result of this generous hopping is a beer that is deliciously dry, and eminently drinkable in spite of its apparent strength.

Decent but nothing speical. Strong on grapefruit hops. Earthy and metallic malts as well. Very drinkable, but lacks the strenght of a good IPA. Borders on an amber ale in some aspects. Lots of head and carbonation.

Orange in color with a nice looking head. Aroma is grassy, pine, light caramel malts, and fruits. Nice mild bitterness produced by the pine and fruity hops. Kind of dry, bitter finish. Decent IPA that doesn’t destroy your tongue. (Draught at Thrash Zone)

Hazy orange pour with a little sediment and a 2 finger white head. earthy biscuit malt, caramel, and faint citrus. Dry, earthy, malty body with some hints of caramel, clover, and a touch of citrus and pine on the finish. Sticky medium body with soft but plentiful carbonation

Sweet dry hop aroma. Hazy orange color with a large rock head. Bitter beginning. Bitterness fades slightly in the finish and gets sweeter.

12-oz. Pours a crystal clear dark amber with a thick, loose, towering, platinum blonde head. Leaves plenty of webby lace. Gorgeous to look at, just picture perfect. Dirty, wet-leaf-y, slightly sweaty nose. Very much on the dry side of IPA aromatics. Creamy medium body with firmly present carb. Caramel, biscuit, wet leaves, earth, and a bit of brown bread on the mid-palate. Where did the hops go? Neither up top nor on the tongue. Bummer. Mild nutty finish.

Apricot, malt and toffee in the aroma. Taste very full hops, fresh bread, very long finish. Hazy orange-yellow, thick head.
