Commercial Description:
No mere beverage could satisfy the thirst of the courageous and gallant soldiers who stood guard over the colonies of the British Empire. Their thirst could only be quenched by a full-bodied hearty Ale; an Ale balanced with rich flavorful hops. We are proud to offer our interpretation of this English style India Pale Ale for those who loong for the time when once your duty was complete, the taste of a fine Ale was reward enough for a job well done.

Pours yellow/gold, with a whiye head. Aromas are hops, grass, and some spice. Flavors are citrusy hops, fruit, sweet malt, and grass. Better than expected.

Perfectly respectable orange color with thin white head. Aroma is approaching nil, so this is not off to a good sttart. Taste is better than expected from aroma, but a bit grassy, and lightly sweet. $2/12oz

served at NYC Brewtopicafest. this is a pretty good one. at the very least it inspired the drawing of an "erging cricket" which offered much amusement to my whole party. a golden body with a medium off-white head that leaves some lacing behind. had a great strong, pungeant smell of spice and grass and pine. tastes strongly of pine with some grain, grass, peppers and citrus, mostly orange. flavors are not well balanced but their intensity makes up for it through their shock value.

Bottle - from sampler pack. Pretty good - decent hops and malt, but a bit of an off flavor.

Aroma is PBJ wheat-malt and slight citru hop. Pale gold, aggressive pour produces small white head. Flavor reveals notable lagery corn beer plus slight faint hint of IPA. Palate is the residue of corn syrup. Boo. Hiss.

Cloudy, bubbly orange pour with a thin white head. Bready, yeasty aroma. Lemony front end with a slightly bitter finish. It would make for a nice session beer....very refreshing.

First review on here... but I’m local to the brewery so I’ve had this on draught before.. but I decided to try the bottle.. Appearance: Clean pour, light goldish amber color, 1/2 finger of head, a little lacing :: Aroma: Mid-hoppy, quite pleasing :: Flavor: Mid-to-heavy initial hoppy taste, goes down smooth and leaves a decent bitter aftertaste :: Palate: For a hoppy beer, the carbonation is decent full-mouth feeling. Overall: Above average for a hoppy IPA, and enjoyable.

Draft. Nice color and aroma, but the fun stopped there. Too thin and not hoppy enough to match up against the rest of the genre. Would be OK if you liked a good ale without the kick.
