Commercial Description:
Columbus dry-hops added directly to the open fermenter uniquely characterize our IPA with an intensely robust pure-like floral aroma and resinous hop flavor. A pronounced hop bitterness is balanced by a medium-bodied, lightly caramel and toasted malt character with a nutty finish.

Bronze body with some floaties and a nice tan head. Aroma promises much more than the flavor actually delivers. Tastes like a really bitter grapefruit mixed with some malt. Not high atop my list of pale ale.

Beer club selection. Dominated by a grapefruity flavor, very weak bitterness for an IPA. Very little to recommend this one

I got this one in my beer club. I have never heard of the brewer before. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer pours a bronze color with a small tan head. The aroma is strong, bitter and grapefruity. The flavor is light malt, a hint of nut and strong sour grapefruit. The flavor fades a bit weakly on the finish. A decent IPA but nothing special.

(12oz bottle) Floatie-filled amber body topped by large beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, floral, orange, light bread. Taste is medium sweet, floral, orange, light caramel. Despite the hops dominating the senses, they really are fairly mild. Medium body, light resin.

Golden orange slightly cloudy pour with a small creamy head. Very clingy lacing. It was intensely aromatic with different dimensions of hops...orange blossom and perfumey pine. Yet the flavor was pertty much straight up hops. A bit unbalanced in that sense. Citrusy and a slight sweet peppery flavor. I haven’t met an IPA that I didn’t like though.

I thought perhaps the first bottle I had was defective, but the second and third both had the same flat flavor. This beer has little carbonation to speak of. Its a shame because the aroma is nice. Malty bitter flavor.

This IPA gets points taken off for its general flatness. It’s very light-bodied, there’s little carbonation, and the head vanished before I finished the pour. Other than that, it’s got some great piney and flowery hop bitterness in the aroma. The flavor, too, is full of these tastes over some light caramel malts. Great lasting bitter finish. But Arcadia needs to kick this up just a notch to make it a great IPA.
