Draught Ballantine, Willoughby,OH I am very happy this great beer is on tap at my local. Excellent balance in this overhopped wonder. Wonderful hop aroma and flavor in this uber IPA. Highly recommended.

Had on tap at Sharx sports pub in RI. Chose this based on cool pirate themed tap. Hoppy and refreshing nice surprise from a place that doesn’t have great selection. I really liked it despite being very hungover.

12 ounce bottle from the local beer store. Pours a clear golden hue with a small white head. A sweet citrus hop aroma, earthy malts. A similar sweet citrus hop flavor, clean and nice. A smooth brew.

Pours with a nice frothy white head. Smells of pine and citrus fruit. Sweet malt backbone balances the hops. In good balance. A nice IPA.

(12 ounce bottle - pint glass) Pours a hazy yellow liquid that leads to an average size head that dissipates slowly. Aroma was hoppy and skunky. Taste was citrus grass and spruce hops. Lively carbonation and medium to thick body. Really a good beer but has imperfections.

Light golden orange, creamy off white foam. Spicy herbal, pine hop aroma. Taste is light crystal bite, then a nice hop bitterness, spicy, pine.

Pours golden with a thick white head. Tastes like pinecone, citrus, floral, some malt sweetness. Got this very fresh, one of the best IPAs I’ve tried from the east coast.

12oz bottle from Grillsmith restaurant (Tampa, FL). Pours a hazy golden to caramel color with one finger white head. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of citrus, carmel, pine, grapefruit, floral esters, hints of spice. Flavor is sweet and floral with notes of floral hops, grapefruit, honey, caramel, citrus, pine. Light to medium body with a pleasing floral hop finish.
