On tap at the Dragonmead Brew Pub. Poured a medium amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of citrus, earthy, and with some caramel. Tastes of the same citrus, earthiness, and toasted caramel. Not really bitter and definitely a British Style IPA.

Hazy amber with good, foamy beige head / Semisweet, malty, cooked nose / Medium body, sweet, malts matching the hops, with decent finish / Flavors of sour malt, cooked fruit & caramel, with only dry hop notes / Heavy-handed, and below average for this good brewery.

On tap at brewery. Pours reddish amber with creamy off-white head. Aroma hops, caramel malt and light citrus. Flavor is malt and citrus. Where are the hops? How they can call this an IPA I don’t know. It is not hoppy enough to be even an APA. Disapointing.

Bottle. Hazy brown color,with a solid head and great lacing. Aroma of caramel malts and earthy hops. Flavor is caramel malt,slight fruit, with just a touch of hop bitterness. Palate is thin and maybe a little sticky . Solid offering, but nothing special

Bottle from miketd, thanks man! Poured a deep reddish-amber color with a thick, almost creamy off-white head that stuck around for quite a while. Light biscuity malt on the nose with some spicy floral hops and some light citrus fruit. Lightly bready malt on the entry with some spicy undertones and a light caramel sweetness transitions into a moderately earthy, floral hop finish. Nice mouthfeel and carbonation. A nice tasting beer, but it doesn’t seem to fit the IPA category. Solid effort.

Cask conditioned. Excellent IPA drinksl like a brown ale. Dark, bold color. Mild hops, great balance. The head was subtle and the last drop cherished.
