Commercial Description:
This India Pale Ale is an exciting beer with a floral in aroma and an incredible hop flavor. The maltiness is increased (over a regular pale ale) to help balance the aggressive hop usage. This contributes to the higher alcohol content as well.

Bottle courtesy of eaglefan538. Floral aroma along with a malted caramel. Copper body with off white head and some lacing. Malted sweet caramel but that couldn’t hold back the bittering hops from being the dominate flavor. A sweet citrus little dryness aftertaste left on the palate. Decent brew thanks Brian.

clear gold, fine white head, solid lace, light citrus hop aroma with a hint of sweet crystal malt, creamy body, lots of hop flavor balanced with sweet crystal and caramel malts, light underlying bitterness for balance but allows the hop flavor be the dominant character, the creamy body and great hop flavor make this a great beer

An excellent IPA for those of us who are not particularly fans of the genre. The nose blends pine and grass notes, and the palate presents an well-blended mix of hops tasting of new-mown lawns and pine forests with citrus and honey notes. Overall, quite drinkable.

Growler, courtesy of LordMaynard. Thanks, Russ! Pours a clear, honey-orange color; fluffy white head with fine-bubbled lacing. Pleasant, resiny citrus and bitter aroma. Medium, sugary and bitter citrus mouthfeel: resiny, chewy hops and candy sugar; very drinkable, well-hopped IPA. Medium candy sugar and citrus finish.

From a growler courtesy of LordMaynard. Dark clear golden with a white head. Pleasant grapefruit/citrusy hop nose, medium intensity. Flavor has notes of pale base malt, very light caramel, grapefruit, light orange and tinge of pine. Some malty sweetness. Pretty well-balanced. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A solid IPA.

Growler @ Ken’s Walloping Wednesday – Nose held mingled hoppy notes of florals, citrus, and hints of peach that sat on a toasty malt backbone. Balanced bitterness of peachy florals and caramel from start to finish. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, dry, bittersweet finish. Solid brew. Thanks for sharing LordMaynard...
