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.

Tap. Pours a hazy orange/golden color with a puffy and slightly tan head. Aroma is heavy pine hops with slight fruity hops at the end of the nose. Taste is pine needle up front, with citrus hops and a slight malty finish. A very solid IPA, on the whole.

Pours golden/orange with thick off white head. Huge piney, hop aroma. Taste is pine, and citrus hops. Aroma was better than the flavor. Still a decent IPA.

On Tap - Taco Mac, ATL. Great IPA. Nice golden color - great hoppy taste to this. Have had a few better IPAs, and a lot worse. Definitely worth a try.

Poured a clear bright golden amber with a nice creamy, foamy head. Mild malty grass aroma with hints of hops. INitial crisp taste with just a mild hoppines. A little bitterness develops on the finish.

nice amber color. definite cascade overtones in the nose and immediately in the flavor. Sweet malt with an end that was really dry, kind of like white toast. Middle of the road IPA Imo

typical IPA pour, dark amber, orange color, good head, and nice sticky lacing on the glass. Nice fresh aromas of citrus, lots of grapefruit, and a touch of pine. Not much malt here, and the hops are a little tame in the flavour, a solid IPA, nothing to knock your socks off, just a good daily drinker.

Bottle. Pours light, clear orange with a white head. Aroma is citrus, grass and oranges. Taste is smooth, balanced, lightly bitter and hoppy. Highly drinkable though not incredibly flavorful.

from a bottle, pours the standard copper color. Something was off in the aroma, it sorta smelled like new shoes or fresh leather. kinda wierd. After gettin past the aroma the flavor was good. piney, citrusy hops with some malt background. i’ll have to revisit this.
