Not a bad beer overall. Poured a coppery color with a thin head that lasted only for a short time. Hoppy, yeasty aroma, hoppy IPA taste, mildly sour. Not one of my favorites, but not bad at all. Bit of an unfortunate aftertaste.

Bottle; Amber in color with an average sized white head. Lots of hoppy citrus smells. Flavor followed the same with citrus predominate, slight bitter throughout. Light to medium body with lively carbonation, but was nice and smooth.

(Bottle) Pours an amber color with a white head. Hoppy nose, with some citrus and pine. Taste is typical of a basic IPA. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but a good IPA.

I must say I prefer this to the Classic Pale ale. I had the 0.355l bottle with 4.7% alc. Nice flowery, a bit bbq aroma. Intense perfume and pepper in the taste. The flavours hit you and stay for a long time. Good one, it almost tastes Brittish ;)

cloudy amber with thick off white head. evergreeny aroma, touch of hops. flavor starts grapfruity, finishes sharply bitter on back of tongue. enjoyable if not exactly refreshing. it does grow on you as either the beer or the drinker mellows.

The snake dog pours out a hazy copper color with a decent head. The aroma was of floral hops. Taste is dry with lots of earthy/floral hop presence and not much else. Thin and not so enjoyable.

Poured an orange color with a white head that left a thick lacing on the glass. Hoppy aroma. Taste is dry and is of citrusy hops, not too aggressive and not much of a malt backbone. Not a tremendous IPA, but certainly drinkable.

(Bottle from Glen Beverage (NH)) Pours hazy amber/orange with about 1" of biscuit head that recedes to a somewhat globby cap as it warms. Aroma mostly flowery hops with some light caramel behind it. Mouthfeel fairly smooth, medium-bodied. Sloppy patches and rings of lacing. Flavor is fairly bitter with some caramel underneath. Finishes with some floweriness. Bitter lingering aftertaste. A little rough, but pretty good.
