Jan 15, 2006 Growler @ Kp’s Cellar. Slightly hazed amber with a medium off-white head. Moderate hop aroma with citrus and lemon flesh. Sweet sugar. Flavor of sweet lemon flesh and bitter lemon rind. Long bitterness on the finish. Dry with a medium body. My favorite out of the IPas on the KP growler night.

Jan 8, 2006 KP brought back a growler of this for his growler tasting. This used to be the Big IPA, but the name recently changed. Amber, almost copper. The hops are reserved in the aroma. Malty. The hops come out more in the flavor, still malty. A bit sweet. Good body. This is more balanced than the Barley’s Centennial, but the Centennial was more interesting in the aroma. Combine the hop aroma and flavor from the Centennial with the maltiness of this beer and you’ve got a great IPA.

Sep 25, 2005 Draft - Poured an orangish-amber in color with a medium whitish head. Aroma was of citrus-piney hops with not much malt mixed in. Flavor was plenty hoppy (though not too) with, again, not much malt to balance it out. Clean and medium bitter finish. This is a good beer, but not outstanding as an IPA. Quite drinkable...

orange tan haze, slight sudsy head. nice nose of cascade. in the mouth you got some typical citrus, light grapefruit, cascade mountain bitterness. not over the top, quite easy to drink and refreshing. unsure of the abv on this one. 5-6%?

Apr 1, 2005 Copper color, beige head. Full on hop aroma, very pleasant. Quite hoppy, decent balance. Medium bodied, bitter finish. Tasty, could use a touch more body though.

Feb 8, 2005 Updated: Aug 21, 2005Nice hoppy aroma. Bright orange in color, nice head. Citrusy hop flavor predominates, but there’s a pretty decent malt flavor backing it up. A very enjoyable American IPA. Followup: Think the brewer’s hopped it up a bit recently, this stuff is really tasting nice of late.
