Commercial Description:
Alaskan IPA is honey gold in color with a fruity, citrus aroma. An enticing blend of hops and our dry hopping process, in which hops are added directly to tanks during fermentation, give this brew a very intense, complex aromatic character with a refreshing hop finish.

#573 (Harmon KilleBREW) This is a weird IPA. Aroma is wonderfully piny upon opening the bottle. Appearance comes out some hazy deep yellow much like a morning urination, with no head to speak of. Flavor is actually nice, but overwhelmed by the flat palate that is almost like a cream-ale feel.

Bottle. Poured gold with a white head. Aroma is really citrusy hoppy. Some mild malt also present. Taste is similarly straightforwad, though there isn’t too much malt. Pretty nice, refreshing IPA. Mouth is on the light side for and IPA, but not bad. Overall, a solid IPA.

Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival. Clear golden, small head. Papery grapefruit aroma. Dryish and light bodied. Crystallic malt and grapefruity hops. Rather bitter finish. Quite basic IPA.

This is just a pretty good beer. Nothing fancy going on here: just some mild hoppiness, crisp nose and mouthfeel, and easy drinking. One of my favorite session beers.

Pours pale golden color with moderate sized white head. In the glass you might mistake it for a macro lager in terms of color. Nose is prickly grapefruit and lemon, but overall on the lighter side. Very subdued. On the palate a more balanced malt/hop balance is apparent for an IPA, with nothing too extreme going on. Perhaps this is more of a traditional IPA than "American" IPA. Finish is dry with pine. Easy drinking IPA.

Nice thick white head on a light golden brew, with decent lacing. Aroma is clean and citrusy, perhaps grapefruit. Flavor is light and hoppy, not much body. A good session beer, served nice and cold after a hot excursion in the sun. I guess I’ve been spoiled by all of these powerful California IPA’s. This is more like a regular pale ale and doesn’t pack much punch.

Aromas: Wonderful citrusy hop aromas. Flavors: Good citrus flavors. Palate: A little thin on the palate with a mild bitterness. Overall: A very tasty IPA.

A fizzy yellow beer with a big white head that dies fast but leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is hoppy, but vague and weak. Flavor is similarly vague hops, a bit of hop bitterness, not much malt to speak of. A bit watery. pretty mediocre IPA.
