Pours out a ncie deep yellow color with a decent white head. Aroma is grassy with a nice hoppiness to it. Flavor is very much the same. These brews have quickly became my favorite and this is a decent example.

Bottle: Not so bitter as other I.P.A.’s but that doesn’t matter. Pale looking beer with some bitternish and hints of caramel.

12 oz Bottle via jgd0608 (thanks!). Pours a clear amber with a small white head. Nose is a floral hoppiness, as well as some citrus hops, mostly grapefruit. THe taste is all about the hops. I do detect the caramel malts way underneath, but it starts out grapefruit hoppy and ends grapefruit hoppy with a bittersweet finish. Light body, high carbonation. Not very complex and not very bitter. .An average IPA.

I love their pale ale, but I am a little dissapointed with their IPA. The flavors aren't consistent and don't work.

I really liked this IPA, no hopdevil, but very good. I liked the bittersweetness which was in the nose. The hops were flavorful but not overly bitter, sweet malts came out in the end....well balanced.

Lots of hops as I was expecting. Quite bitter, nothing wrong with that. Something is very off though. Some kind of sour taste, very slight, but enough that it bugs the hell out of me. No good.

The first bite from this is nice, not to strong but decent enough to make it enjoyable. Otherwise this seems to fall off from there. I hoped for more of a citrus flavor in accordance with the aroma.
