Commercial Description:
A strong India Pale Ale that is marked by intense hop flavor and high hop bitterness. This style of beer needed the high hop and alcohol to survive the trip around Africa. Medium to light body and very bitter.

Poured a clear, dark golden color with a small, white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of pine, floral hops, tropical fruits, toast, and a bit of citrus. Taste of dry, toasted dough, citrus fruits, caramel malts, pine, and a sweeter, grapefruit finish.

Pours a rich amber from the tap at Four Peaks with a tim off-white head. Mild hops in the nose and on the palate, which cause me to question this beer’s classification as an IPA, but the addition of sweet malts to this brew make it balanced and highly drinkable.

On tap at Scottsdale location. Pours a medium amber with a lasting cream head and spotty lacing. Nose is malt and floral hops. Taste is sweet ripe citrus for the most part with a slight bitter pine finish. Medium mouth feel. Decent IPA.

Golden amber...lingering head. Moderate hop aroma. Flavor is somewhat rich, malty, white bread, some caramel, some hops but not significant. On tap at brewery.

A solid IPA. Pours a little more amber than most IPAs with respectable head. Hoppy all the way through, from the aroma to the finish. Crisp with hints of flowers and spice. In typical 4 Peaks fashion, strong abv but well hidden. Hightly recommended if your in the Valley of the Sun.

Growler, via BA tayner. Pours a clear light copper, billowy fizzy one finger off-white head. Lots of thick lacing. Low visible carbonation. The nose is fresh green hops with a grapefruity citrusy livelyness. Some brittle toffee maltiness. Nice hoppy flavor without too much bitterness making it very drinkable. Some iced tea crystal malt on the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with just a touch of resiny stickiness. Moderate fizzy carbonation. Overall, a nice easy drinking IPA. Nothing stand-out, but also no notable flaws. My pick of the 5 Four Peaks beers I’ve had.

On tap in Scottsdale location. Strongest beer there, and always my fav! although KIltlifter is a close second...Not sure why I got a hangover the next day after 3 beers....but oh well....can’t get too descriptive on the color(it was dark) aroma was hoppy, and the taste was pretty good. Not the greatest IPA, but a VERY good attempt for a local brewery that distributes locally (NOT this particular beer however)
