A large, off-white head settles rocky over a bright, golden/orange body. Juicy hop aromas are lemon & pine, rather sweet with a touch of spicy rye and a general feeling of powdered instant tea. Flavor is a cozy melange of sweet, sour and bitter and the whole of it is balanced and well-tempered by malts. There is a touch of nuttiness to a base of bitter tea before a finish that is bitter and citric. Light stickiness and mid-bodied weight. This is the kind of IPA that I could drink all day.

The color is incredibly nice, warm amber and the head is huge and creamy. The aroma is lovely, aromatic and fruity hoppy and the flavour has light notes of caramel, lots of aromatic hops, fruity citrus, mostly grapefruit, light hints of resin and a nice bitterness, that develops slightly dry in the long finish! A really nice IPA!! 2449

Orange-amber with a decent white head, medium retention, minimal lace. Aroma of herbal and floral hops, notes of straw, mint, alcohol and yeast. Heavily dry-hopped, the hops dominate the taste, the malt doesn’t add much. Almost medicinal. Strong bitter long finish. Mouthfeel is appropriate, neither overly viscuous nor too effervescent. NOTE: The current description on the Flying Dog website says crystal malt, not English Marris Otter.

Orange to amber color with diminishing head. Powerful aroma of orange peel and hops. Solid IPA. Very hoppy taste that stays with you. I find it goes well with shrimp scampi.

Really enjoyed this beer. It had a nice piney aroma to it with some citrus hint. I loved the amberish color to it and it poured a nice head too. It reminded me a lot of Rogue’s St. Rogue Red.

Copper-brown beer with white light head. Aroma is fruitful and very fresh. Taste is fruity and sweet there is also hops in the beginning. Aftertaste is very hoppines and long. This is very good beer for someone who likes lots of hops.
