This beer poured a large frothy off-white head with very fine-small sized bubbles. The body was clear with very little carbonation observed. The hue of this beer was orange. The nose was hoppy and citrusy. The lacing was excellent on the sides of my glass. The flavor was very hoppy and bitter from start to finish and the bitterness lingered. The mouthfeel was tingly on my tongue.

Pours a translucent orange amber with a medium size fluffy white head. Aroma of orange, sweet and some light pine and floral. Taste is a bit oily in the feel, some bitterness some pine and roasted malts at the end.

Pours a orange brown with a small tan head. Aroma is light hops and malt. Sort of sweet. The taste is hops, citrus mainly with lemon and a hint of orange, and some malt. No bitterness in this at all. Rather smooth beer. Decent stuff!

Bottle from Whole Foods, Kensington, London. Amber ale with frothy head. Full maltiness and intense grassy dryness. I really enjoyed this one!

Bottle. Borwn beer with a strong head. The aroma is very fruity and dry, and the flavour is heavily malty and very dry. Overall a really nice beer.

Rerate Sampled again - still a good IPA - just had so many better ones to rate this one so high - description still sticks Original 3.8 Moderate hoppy aroma with a slight citrusy bent to it. Nice thick, lacy head and a thick, cloudy orange appearance. Hoppy flavor - but not too overpowering - makes for a strong finish. Finished with my mixed six of Flying Dog - overall - not a bad group of brews so far.

Amber with a small off-white head. Hop aroma with pine and a developing background of sweet caramel. The caramel also present in the taste, with some orangey fruit, but the whole rather swamped, in my opinion, by the sharp hoppiness.

Draught at Old Chicago in Coralville, IA. Clear light orange color with two fingers of foamy of white head that laced the glass. Sprucy, flowery hop aroma and flavor. There is also a hint of grape candy and malty toffee. Hop bitterness is lacking a bit.
