a little muddy, this is a decent tasting brew. I just need more hop kick in my IPAs.

I enjoyed Harpoons IPA, would reccomed to a friend. I also feel that there are good hops flavor in this beer unlike some other accounts of this IPA. Again would reccomend to a friend.

It pours a deep golden color with a big, thick, and white head that makes nice lace on the glass. A floral bouquet of hops fills the nose. The hops are flavorful with pine and citrus notes over a light toasted and biscuity malt taste. The palate is medium bodied with good carbonation and a hopy bitterness that lingers on the tongue and begs you to take anther sip. Its not over the top hoppy but they are main show here which is how I like an IPA to be.

When I think IPA I think big hop flavor...and the Harpoon IPA just doesn’t seem to deliver that.

Copper coloured and poured with medium head. Some hoppiness but not overpowering as sometimes happens. Slightly bitter finish. Well balanced-an excellent IPA.

Light copper color. Not the best aroma - it’s a little light, but the taste is great. A very drinkable IPA.
