horrible example of an IPA. definitely a pale ale, but without the India attached to it.

Had this beer on 8/28/1998. Color is a deep bright gold with good carbonation and head. Aroma is light and frizzy with just a hint of hops. Taste is light and bitter. It starts off with a light cool body, there is a bitterness at the start. As it goes down there is a slight sharpness that turns to a bitter finish that has no hop flavor at all. I feel the body is too thin, there is no hop flavor and is to bitter for the thin body.

I was acutally surprised about this one. I thought it looked good but a guy at the store told me it was not good. I enjoyed this one. Very piney nose. Tastes of pine and hops and malt. Not much else to say its really good.

Snake Dog has flavor but is a bit thin for an IPA. Color and bitterness level more remind me of an APA than an IPA.

Well, this has to be the best from the flying dog. There is the citris hop nose with the gold body and white head. The hop presence is nice, since there is no casscade.

ARoma of citrus and hops, with a little malt. Pours is copper with white head. Slightly bitter with floral hops, malt, and a hint of caramel. Another sub-par beer from flying dog.

Bottle at Bishops Arms, Järntorget-Göteborg. clear red colour,with a nice creamy head. Aroma has lots of US hopynose,fruity,citrus and flowers. Flavor has a smooth mouth feeling of sweetmaltynes and hops in a nice balance.Thin to medium body and a medium fruity finish.

If I was driving to Las Vegas with ether and a trunk full of drugs, swigging these would I get the point? Grassy, grapefruit, not at all BAD, but not my cup of tea or pint of choice.
