Commercial Description:
This is our unique version of an ancient style. A style as old as the ocean trade routes of the last centuries Great Ships. Not as old as the equator they had to cross twice enroute, nor as old as the 10,000 or so miles of Di-Hydrogen Oxide and Sodium upon which they sailed, but older than the Circulithium-4 Lentloid that binds the Lupulin Quartnate onto your taste buds. Weird. Think about it. Now stop. OK, go again, now stop. Think again, and stop. But we digress. Made with 43 different hops and 65 various malts, this redolent ale will likely float your boat, whatever planet you're on.

Pours a hazy orange color with a thin white head. Aroma of hops and light pine. Flavor is citrus, pine, and sweet malt. A bit bland for an india pale ale but decent.

On tap at the Federal. Thought I had rated, but I guess not. Bright clear amber pour with gauzy foamy near-white head. Some citrus and tropical fruit hop notes; as piney as some of their other offerings. Good bit of grainy malt. Quite nice, with a smooth, crisp finish. Slick palate. Easy to drink.

Pours an amber color with a huge beige head with great retention. Very fresh, grapefruity aroma with an orange, grapefruit flavor and solid bitterness at the end. Its really a great, tasty IPA, but it lacks the stylishness and balance to put it at the very top of the list. On the West Coast, however, its hard to find a better value at between 15-18 bucks per 12 pack.
