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.

Cloudy amber color, flavor is dominated by pine, with some citrus hops, and some maltiness for balance, one of my favorite IPAs

I really liked this beer a lot! The aroma was citrusy, yet piney at the same time. Nice bronze color to the beer and poured me a thinner than expected head. The taste was surprisingly refreshing and the citrus aroma actually translated to a citrus taste from the hops. Finish was very crisp, I enjoyed this beer thoroughly..........

Pours dark amber with a large head. Fresh citrus and hops are the predominate aroma. Nice amount of hops, for an IPA. Not too dominate but, a significant part of the flavor profile.

Pours a red amber colour... medium white head... good malt flavour, with an outstanding strong balance of hops... definitely one of the best american IPA beers you will ever have....

Excellent true to character IPA. Slightly orange head, cloudy orange golden color. Smells of orange of pine. The 43 hops make this one incredibly rich. Tastes like a traditional IPA. Cheers!

Draft at The Bier Garden. Pours a lacing, off-white head with a golden-amber body. Smells strongly of citrus hops along with some spice hops and dirty socks. Flavor is floral and spicy hops with some honey. Finish is citrus and bitter hops.

Big fluffy head and thick sheets of lace topped off this glorious golden nectar. First the malt - yep, there's some in here, showing up in the thin stream of sweetness down the center of my tongue. The citrus/fruit aroma carries thru to the resiny hops full of thick grapefruit juice - I was surprised at how hoppy it seemed when the bottle lists 44 IBU. This would be perfect for a summertime picnic

Superior hop aroma - pine, citrus, whole flower goodness. Nose is not without a wonderful nutty, caramelly malt presence. Perfectly balanced, strong chewy malts, Bitter flavorful hops. Not overly bitter, smooth and lasting flavor. Quality is apparent at first sip. Awesome.
