Pours orangish amber with a medium head. Aroma is a rounded citrus hoppiness with a slight hint of floral hops and a medium sweet and slightly toasty malt backing. Flavor is basically the same as the aroma. Not a blow your mind IPA but the nice full yet rounded citrusy hops make for a nice IPA you could drink happilly all night.

Muddy amber color with little head. Malt aroma dominant over the too-little hop aroma. Flavor follows the aroma, resulting in a beer that is more suited to being a regular English bitter than an IPA.

Poured a dark golden color with a medium sized off white head and spotty lacing on the glass. Floral, light citrus hop aroma. Taste of watermelon and sweet malts with light bitterness. Certainly not west coast.

A pleasant flavorful IPA, although heavy on the malt and light on the hops. Unlike many IPAs that try to outhop each out at the expense of taste, this has a nice body of flavors to back it up. Won't appease the hopheads, but a good IPA for everyone else.

Chill haze. Excellent head and lacing. The palate is medium in body, with a touch of hops. I was let down by this brew. Not enough hops.

Copper color with an average head. Hoppy aroma with doses of citrus. Crisp, bitter taste that also reflected the citrus overtones. Good malt balance, maybe more noticable because it was dispensed from a firkin. Nice smooth finish.

An OK IPA. Golden with reddish hues and a clean head. Citrusy/fruity aroma and flavor. Thinnish bodied and a quick finish.

Golden with white head. Aroma is medium citric, and flavor is strong grapefruit. Solid albeit formulaic IPA.
