A very fine beer. Excellent color, easy drinking for us hopheads. Tastes like hops in a glass. Great summer beer. Full Sail can not make a bad product!

The clarity on this beer is exquisite! Fery pleasant Noble Hop Aroma. A decent Hop flavor and the IBU bitterness is appropriatly balanced by the Malt. Overall a find engish IPA. I prefer a little more HOP flavour and IBU such as u get with an american IPA. But this is good nonetheless.

Sampled this one on draught at the brewery in Hood River, OR. This beer pours to a bright, deep golden to orange color, with a tall white head, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose on this beer is very fragrant, with big aromas of citrus, lemon, and pine. The palate is firm, with good, crisp, pale pale malt flavors. This beer finishes with more good pale malt up front, then ends with a very zesty, and bitter citrus/pine hop bite that lingers. A classic example of AIPA, that showcases hop aromas and bitterness wonderfully.

If you read my profile, you’ll see that I list my favorite beer style as IPA. To be specific, uber-hoppy American IPAs are my favorite. This one is a shining example of why that is. It pours an orangy-amber with a medium sized head with medium persistence. Pretty lacing is left on the edges of the glass as the beer is drunk. Nose is sweet and floral with notes of wood and spices. Flavor is distinctly woody and absolutely delicious bitter-hoppy with notes of herbs and spices with just a slight hint of bread. Finish is hoppy and bitter but clean and tasty and lasts exactly the right amount of time. It doesn’t linger too long nor vanish too quickly.

This is one of those "you kinda taste peach and/or honey" sorts of IPAs. I like! Also distinctive in its prominent head, aggressive lacing, slight haze, and aggressive carbonation. Finishes slightly sweet, smooth and mellow. (The commercial description says "English-style IPA." I think that this style may well be to my liking.)

From bottle : Very good first taste off of this baby. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a finger of white foamy head. The head dies down fairly quick though, but leaves a nice white ring and pretty nice lacing around the glass. A very nice mixed aroma of malts and floral hops, i really really like the aroma of this beer. Flavor is great as well, very balanced much like the aroma, with malts and hops. A little bitterness on the end, but its good. Palate is medium body and lively as it goes from one end of the mouth to the other and on its way down. One of my favorite IPAs so far, very good.
