Draft at Green Leafe Newtown. Pours cloudy dark straw with nose of hopcitrus, caramel malt. Tastes hoppy, spicy, caramel malty, with finishing pepper and yesty notes. I love seeing unfiltered IPAs, and this one was complex and truly enjoyable from beginning to end, enough so that it made it through my sampling round to get its own pint. Well done.

A delicious pale ale. Brewed just a few miles away meant that I had to try it. Amber in color, full of fresh citrus aroma and hoppy after taste. A nice beer to enjoy on a Spring evening.

Pint at the brewery. This is a crystalline gold hue with a white head. Hops are certainly in the aroma, but not overwhelming. It has a slightly metallic character, but most emphasis is placed on citrus and grass notes. It’s a fairly bitter beer and grassy with hints at dough. Finish is dry. While this is definitely hoppy, it could use even more hop definition. This is a reasonable pale ale.

12oz bottle courtesy of kinz. Good pine and citrus vine aroma. Darker copper body with off white creamy head. Medium lacing on the pint glass. Started out with some good citrus but that mellows out and has a somewhat dry bitter finish. Refreshing beer after work.

on draft at capital ale house downtown. this was certainly the surprise beer of the night. pours a light, very clear, copper color with a bright white head a big lacing. aroma was big fresh hops, very grassy, with some hints of rose petals, pine, and citrus. flavor was surprisingly bright and fresh as well with grassy, bitter hops up front with citrus notes of grapefruit and orange pith. a very subtle light malt presence added a very nice balance. palate was very clean, slightly dry, with good carbonation and a lasting bitterness. overall, a very nice session pale from VA.

Pours nice and coppery with some decent carbonation. Smell is a bit bittery, but the taste doesn’t follow down that path. It’s definitely hop forward but not crazy by any means, actually quite tasty with some citrus and maybe piney? Good no less.

12 oz bottle. Pours a mostly clear amber and a thin lasting head. Aroma is citrusy a bit lemon and light crackery malts- light doughy as well. Dry toasty malt flavor with more citrus light mint and pine throughout and a dry sharp bitterness in the end. Hops arent that big in here but it works ok. Decent IPA.
