Golden yellow with a small white head. Grassy, citrusy hops in the aroma with a lot of grapefruit notes. Bitternes and some slight grapefruit is the dominant flavour. There is not much malt in here to balance it out. Average palate, this is a pleasant hoppy beer even if it is a bit one dimensional at times. Thanks Ken.

SLightly above average IPA. Aroma isnt overly hopped, and has a nice malt balance. FLavor is crisp and slightly fruity with a moderate bitterness. Mouthfeel is average- carbonation, average. Well done but nothing outstanding.

Bottle conditioned. This gushed heavily when poured, and sliding it down the side of the glass didn’t help either. After this huge head turned itself back into beer, it had a hazy yellow-orange color. The aroma was that of lemon drop cookie dough. The palate was smooth and the flavor was nicely hopped and well balanced. It had a nicely bitter finish. Not a bad IPA.

From "the other Cooperstown brewery." Hazy amber body with a big, frothy white head. Aroma was citrus/hops, grapefruit. Body was light to medium with a refreshing mouthfeel. Slight carbonation. Taste had notes of grapefruit, slight spice. This was a refreshing beer. I’ve had better IPAs but this was quite nice.

Hazy orange color out of the bottle with a light beige foamy head. Almost berry fruitiness with caramel sweetness. Nice piney hop bitterness that trailed into a grapefruit rind finish. Very lively on the tongue. Pretty tasty beer. Thanks to DYCSoccer for the bottle.

A good IPA. Golden in color with a moderate head. Warms the mouth and is well hopped. Taste lingers but this is a welcome reminder of the fine brew.

Well crafted beer, nice head and lacing. Very sharp taste to the back of your throat and a tad bitter at the end, but I still like it, packs some punch.

12 oz bottle: Clear bronze, with a huge fluffy cloud on top. An incredible stream of bubbles throughout. Sweet, but light malt aroma with just a whisper of hops. Moist, bitter hop petals. Flavour is all around sour and flat.
