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.

Bright golden hue. Head is nice and first but fades. Vibrant vanilla-like nose. Smooth, soft and tingly texture. Aromatic malts, laden with caramel and honey. Flowery and herbal hops; a little citrus; grassy bitterness. Decent, easy-to-drink IPA.

GABF 2005. Golden, clear, with a frothy white head. Light grapefruit and pine aroma. A decent hop bite, more pine needles than citric grapefruit or lemon, but all are there. Mildly carbonated with a dry finish. I’d like to see a little more malt in the mix, it would make for a really good IPA.

6 pack from MCAS Miramar Marine Mart: Hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is lightly grassy citrus and pine. Flavor starts fruity sweet with citrus followed by a sweet, semi-dry grapefruit bitter finish. Medium body is creamy with moderate carbonation.

#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.

12oz. Bottle: Aroma of hops and caramel malt. Poured gold/yellow in color with a small, off-white head that diminished but lasted as a film on top of the beer. Clear. Slightly sparkling. Flavor is medium bitter. Tastes of hops, grass, pine, and slight caramel malts. Medium body. Slightly dry texture. Average carbonation. Medium bitter hop finish.

Draft. A golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and caramel as well as light notes of hops - my guess is Cascade. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and Cascade hops, leading to a dry, bitter, and grassy finish.

Pours a nice golden color with frothy white head. Great lasting head with stuck solid lacing. Aroma is spicy hops. Flavor is actually well balanced. Some malt charecter with some hops coming through as well. Clean finish with some lingering hops. Not bad, very similar to Bridgeport.

Bomber from BevMo in Scottsdale. Clear light amber pour and small white head with a little lacing. Fresh pine and spruce aroma. Mild citrus and biscuity flavor with notes that reminded me of their Winter Ale. Mouthfeel a bit on the thin side. Dry snappy finish. Not your everyday IPA and worth a try if you can get your glass on one.
