A full-bodied, traditional IPA, well balanced with a healthy dose of English hops. Reminiscent of "historical" Knoxville IPA’s.

Growler. Poured a clear, golden color with a medium white head. Strong lacing. Pleasant citrus aroma with a hint a sweet malt to it. Mouthfeel is nice. Flavor is a pleasant hoppy taste. Citrus is very apparent, with a nice sweet caramel touch to it. Finish has a pine taste to it. A nice brewpub IPA.

Amber colour with ruby (wierd, huh!?) highlights and a thin off-white head. Decent hoppy aroma with a bit of a malt kick. Medium-bodied; Great hoppy flavour with a good malt balance. Aftertaste shows some hoppy flavour with a bit of alcohol. Overall, an actually pretty good IPA! I had this on draught at the brewpub in Knoxville, Tennessee on 27-September-2003.

The brewer at Downtown is formerly one of the original 'beer guys' with the (RIP) New Knoxville Brewing Co. Tweaking the old New Knox IPA recipe here and there created this very acceptable IPA. Worth a try if you're in Knoxville. Good food too.

Courtesy of lithy. Pours copper with a white head. Smells of citrus, caramel, yeasty. Tastes earthy, toasty, bitter and resiny with an earthy peppery finish.

On tap at the Downtown Grill. Poured golden, citrus, floral nose. Flavor was citrusy, malty, and the finish nicely hoppy.
