355 ml bottle. Clear, golden orange body with a dense off-white head. Sweet and heavy hoppy/citrus + hay aroma. Flavor has a sharp, prompt bitterness, giving a dry feeling even realizing this is a quite sweet beer. Balanced but not much malt flavor here.

Thin fluffy head of rather large bubbles. Very good carbonation. Reduces to a sticky sloppy bit of lace. Bitter iced tea aroma with some light malts and some floral hops. Color is a light orange. Hoppy but thin flavor. Little malts and some orange. Kind of bland. Finish is hoppy and bitter. Kind of a sickly sweet aftertaste though. Not a very good IPA.

Bottle. A mild IPA in every way imaginable. Mild hops, mild nose, gold color. Good, but unimpressive.

Pours a nice deep amber color. Aromas of hops/hops/citrus. Strong hop flavors with malts and a spicy finish.

Amber body with foamy white head. Aroma is citrus, grapefruit to be exact. Malty. Fruity. Taste is clean and fresh. Not bad but not great.

not the best IPA I ever had, but certainly well enough to enjoy it. Hops hit you strong at first, mellows out. taste of citrus, not as clean tasting as other IPA. Still it is what it is.

Wierd aroma. Leafy & broccoli like. Earthy flavor, not as hoppy as I would like but the malt is quite nice.

12oz from Sparky27 - thanks, Eric! Nice gold-to-orange color with a crisp floral smell. Very light and lively body, effervescent in a way that benefits the hop profile. Some malts for smoothness. Easy drinking, unremarkable, but sessionable.
