On tap at the Colgate Inn. Pours a light golden brown with a small white head. Aroma of floral hops. Initial flavor of bitter hops, followed by wheat and a sweet malt. For an IPA, it wasn’t very hoppy (and this was super fresh), but for a beer, it was quite tasty. Very drinkable, just don’t expect a hop-bomb.

Pours a deep golden colour borderline orange with a full white, floral head. Aroma is stern, in your face hoptastic, with lots of fresh fruit but taste is more mellow in comparison to its aroma. Hoppy- yes , but balanced, and not overly bitter. just right :)

Bottle. Pale golden beer with a strong white head. The aroma is warmingly hopped and dry, and the flavour is very well hopped, fruity and deeply dry at the finish. Overall a very nice beer.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a nice gold with a decent head. A very nice citrus/floral/hoppy aroma. Flavor was bitter, with a touch of sweetness. A dry/bitter finish. One of my recent favs.

From the bottle, standard deep gold color. Very floral as the label suggests. The hop aroma was terrific, and I picked up licorice and pine on the way down with not a whole lot of bitterness left on the tongue. The head tapered off halfway down the glass. Nice IPA for those who haven’t had an IPA yet.

Gold with a white head. Malt aroma with pine and citrus. Taste is citric with underlying toffee and a sharp hoppy finish. Easy drinking, full of character. Good.
