Commercial Description:
Our IPA pours a slightly hazy, pale orange with a balanced malt flavor and finishes with a wonderful flavor and aroma only American hops can provide. This beer is served unfiltered to retain all the bouquet from the hops.

Nice citrus aroma. Powerful. Comparable to UnEarthly. Nice bitter citrus taste with lingering bittering hops on the backside but not to intense.

I had this beer from a cask and I thought it was delicious. Refreshing with a good amount of hops. Nothing spectacular in the way of an IPA, a pretty traditional flavor.

Bottle from nrbw23. Thanks! Pours orangish with a medium lived head. Smell is very fresh and hoppy with lots citrus and earthiness. Very nice smell. Taste is nicely crisp, hoppy and drinkable. Medium body and normal carbonation. Surprisingly good. Would defintely have more often, if available.

Aroma was sweet and hoppy with whiffs of flowers and grass. Bright orange body. Large and fresh hop flavor with apricots, flowers, sweet malt - also slightly bitter. Sweet and slightly bitter finish. “It’s like nectar of the Gods”!

A great floral aroma. flavor has a growth of bitterness from the start to end. Pretty good, could be a little bit better if had a better balance of hop types in the actual beer itself.

Mid-copper with a slow-forming head, slow carbonation and thick legs. Doesn’t look "unfiltered" as the menu suggests. Sharp nose with lemon zest, orange rind, pine needles, peppers and florals. Wow... nice! Sharp flavor concentrates on the pine & pepper. A little thin in the mouth with a dry, bitter linger. Very subtle suggestion of sweetness, but not enough to divert your concentration from the hoppage. I’d say 65-70 IBU’s? Groovy.

On tap at the Columbus Microbrew Festival. Pours a golden color with a thin white head. This was a very good IPA, Had a full hops flavor.

12oz bottle. Pours a hazy, burnt orange color with a small soapy white head. Doesn’t look very carbonated though that’s fine by me. Aroma is a fresh blast of tropical fruit. Huge citrus character. Mango, orange, resin. Centennial hops with a decent malt background. Slightly biscuity. Tropical fruits abound in the flavor. Intense peach and pineapple. Bitterness is moderate to low for the style. A fruitiness from the hops is present though the beer is not sweet. A slghtly bitter, drying finish. This is a solid IPA.
