Commercial Description:
Brewed with the finest organic malts and hops, our IPA features a bright-minted copper color and a crisp, yet smooth hop bitterness. Pale and crystal malts come through with a malty caramel sweetness, balanced with aggressively clean burst of fresh hop flavor in the middle palate without lingering bitter astringency. A strong floral and citrus character from generous dryhopping blends with strawberry esters from our house yeast strain for an inviting and satiating aroma.

12 oz bottle via Hagen. Pours a clear amber with an average beige head. Nose is citrus and herbal. Taste is orange, orange peel, pine, coriander, iced tea. Too heavy on the cystal malts...This seems more like an east coast ipa in style. Body is light and it is a bit on the watery side. Not much here. next...

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours amber and opaque. There is a really muted smell for me, toasted grain, piney hops, and caramel. The taste is the same, but not as good. Good carbonation and mildly enjoyable.

(22oz bottle) Pours a hazy amber body with a small beige head. Aroma of caramel, citrus, light pine, and toasted grain. Flavor of caramel malt and hops (citrus, earth, grass) with a mildly bitter finish. Reminds me of many of the earlier American brewpub IPAs.

Bottle. Large creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Somewhat clear amber color. Aroma of fruit, piney, peachy, light grape, citrus. Over the palate came light nutty and mild toasted malty notes. Medium bodied with an average carbonation and light dry texture. Moderated bitter and sweet flavor. Mild fruity floral dry finish.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a nice clear amber with off-white head. Aroma of some nice grapefruit as well as a little faint malt. Flavor of some nice citrus, grapefruit, a little malt and ends with a nice bitter. Mouthfeel is medium body with high carbonation. Overall, refreshing IPA, not bad.
