Commercial Description:
It’s not as heavy bodied and malty as many IPA’s, in contrast the palate is more crisp and dry. If you consider yourself a "hop-head" you owe it to yourself to grab this beer.

Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of goryshkewych. Pours rather cloudy golden with a white head. Very fresh and very American nose of citrusy hops and peach. Medium body with plenty of fruit and dry hoppy accents with plenty of lovely peach. Yummy. 130608

12 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy and yellow with a lacing white head. Solid spiced hops, pinewood aroma. Flavour is dry and hoppy with light caramel malt base to provide just enough balance. Smooth and bitter wooden finish.

Hazy golden beer, with a soapy lace - aroma of woody hops and an almost skunky quality - soft, earthy character - fairly potent hop bitterness (bordering on astringent), that dries the beer out, despite the malt sweetness and buttery quality - a floral, perfume like character manifests late in the aroma and flavor - a decent IPA, but not great.

Nice hoppy aroma, with hints of citrus in it. Pours a hazy bright amber, with a thin dusting of white head on top. Nice crisp flavor, touch of sweetness, but then the citric hops come in. Touch of grassiness. Nice long bitter finish. Hope this one makes it across the state line soon.

Courtesy of Juart. Pours a hazy amber orange color with a frothy white head that disappears rather quickly, but leaves some nice lacing. The aroma is an orange - grapefruit 5-Alive flavor (sorry for the throwback beverages) with a little bit of floral. The taste is much more floral than citrus. It is what I imagine roses taste like. Some brown sugar sweetness with a little bitterness, but not cloying until after the taste has passed. It hangs around in the back of the throat. A medium body.

Very murky orange pour with small off white head, good amount of sediment. Aroma is full of citrus hops with notes of peacha nd mango. A real pleasure to sniff at this one. The flavor follows sute with the addition of a mild piney bitterness and a moderate malty sweetness. This is an excellent IPA and I prefer it to their double, which I found to be a bit out of balance. Very nice IPA.

pours a hazy orange with heavy sediment. Aroma is citrus and floral hops with underlying caramel malt. Flavour is suprisingly malty, again caramel and toasty with floral and lemon hop. Pretty good, but not great. I think Two Hearted has spoiled IPA’s for me!! Or just spoiled me....
