Bottle. Pours light amber with an off-white head. Aroma of pine and citrus. The flavor is bitter, slight fruit, citrus, and moderate carbonation. Decent brew.

Heh, another beer i’ve had many a times that i’ve never rated, so what the heck, i’ll pick another up. Pours clear amber with a soft white head. Hops had a nice blend of herbal and citrus ties. Very light malt up front with a green bitter finish. I prefer a bit more flavoring hops then this provided me, this focused more on the bittering.

Great second level IPA. I would suggest this to my friends who think Sierra Nevada is a BIG BEER! This is the next level to get to true IPA’s with some bite. I have a friend in mind who I am going to bring to this level and oln to Dreadnaught we go......................

Lacked the hops I was expecting, light gold pour, really not deep or hoppy, mild body. Not for those who want a thick IPA.

Nice aroma of hops with a roasted malt flavor. Lingers with a nice bitter flavor on the tongue. An enjoyable IPA.

Poured with a finger head, nice, sharp hoppy aroma. Clean and not over powering scent. Very bitter palate, overly hoppy to the point of saturation. Thick IPA.

The beer pours a a creamy white head, good lacing. The aroma is moderately roasted malt with a slight smell of grain. The body is a amber/orange color. The initial flavor is a little bitter with a slight sourness, but the finsih is bitter and average to long. The body is light to medium, the texture is a little watery yet a little creamy, the carbonatio is soft.

Bottle. Uninspired india pale ale. Hops are unbalanced and uninteresting. Appearance is unattractive. Palate is unwelcome sharp bitter dryness. Overall unimpressive.
