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.

Clear orange, moderate head, some lacing and retention. Aroma is grapefruit, wood, caramel. Cascades and Goldings? Medium bodied, moderate bitterness. Flavors don’t suit my preferences.

This beer poured an orange color. A faint lemon and pine aroma. The flavor is only somewhat bitter with some lemons and grapefuit showing. This one seemed rather one dimensional and not very complex. Overall a sub par IPA.

Bottle, my 100th IPA rating. Pours brass color with thin offwhite head. The aroma is citrus with some woody and herbal notes. The flavor is honeyish malts with citric and earthy hops. Medium bitterness with a somewhat dull finish. Very textbook, but easy to drink.

bottle. Pours a light orange amber with an aroma that falls short on hops. Taste is muted hop bitterness with some malt sweetness. Averaqge IPA

Bottle. Pours a light orange/amber color with a white head and spotty lacing. Aroma of citrus and piney hops, grainy malts and some grapefruit. Flavor is lightly sweet with caramel, citrus, mild malts, and grapefruit with a dry and bitter finish.

This yellow beer poured with a massive off-white head and a yeasty aroma. There is a caramel malt flavor with some light hop bitterness. This seems like a pretty good session beer, but nothing special.

Bottle (in NZ), pours orange gold with a filmy head. Strong hop aroma of juicy fruit. Plenty of hops on the palate, deliciously citrus and moreish, with an earthy finish.

22oz bomber, stamped A092008--something about September 20th? Hopefully not the best by date. Purchased @ Bottle Barn. Aroma has pine and pine air fresheners, light perfume, and some watered-down caramel malts. Clear golden with a one finger off-white head, fading to a think film and thick ring. Flavor leans more malty, though not watered-down this time. There is still the soft pine notes, and floral perfume does come across a bit in the finish, which is semi-dry. Bitterness peaks at a 3-4. Moderate carbonation with a medium body. A good IPA. Not a West Coast hop bomb, but good.
