Commercial Description:
Our organic IPA uses Tomahawk, Cascade, and Centennial hops for a rustic, rough-hewn hop character that pairs great with food or relaxing among friends. Prominent citrus and pine aromas and bitterness that is not over the top balances this medium bodied copper-colored brew.

Pours a light gold in color. Only a slight ring of head forms on the pour and is quickly gone. Smell is only slight floral hops. Taste is same as the smell. Slight hopping. Not a whole lot there. Your basic ale with just enough hops to notice. Very easy drinking, but not exciting.

Courtesy my buddy Steve. Pours a light copper with a thick white head. Big hop aroma, very earthy citrusy. Spicy bitter hop taste with a nice malt presence. Standard IPA, although I found it more west coast than British.

Copper pour with off-white head. Nose is resiny hops, caramel malt, some fruit. Crisp flavor with hops balanced well by the malt. Not terribly complex or palate hefty, but fairly smooth.

Called Bison Organic IPA (different beer?). Faintly cloudy orange, with a thin white head. Clean, soapy aroma. Clean, crisp stoney bitterness, some woodsy notes. Not a whole lot of malt character, not very complicated, but tasty.

Pours medium/light copper from 12 oz bottle, formed little to no foamy head. Aroma of the usual, some hops, floral citrus and a bit of caramel. Flavour is of hoppy caramel burst of herbal delight. Pine resin sneaks through, Kinda got a topical fruit thing going too, ending a little dry. Overall decent IPA, but not what I would consider world class.

wow, this is nice. beautiful deep golden color and clarity. wee bit of toast and assertive but not overbearing malt character of straw, biscuit and light caramel fringed with understated phenols. The hop mix is beautiful. I can’t make it out at all but with neither a west coast or british signature and seemingly a blend of two bold complements. Wow, this is very nice without being over the top

Pours bright orange with mostly receding off-white head. Aroma of alcohol and orange, higher alcohols. Taste is orange, grapefruit and mango. Mouthfeel is full bodied with lively carbonation. Nice and easy drinking.
