Commercial Description:
Our hoppiest beer to date! This formidable India Pale Ale has a hop aroma that demands attention. The bold, citrus hop flavor is balanced by a dry malt character that makes this refreshing ale a true classic.

Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours amber with an off-white head. Aroma of fruit, citrus, and pine. The flavor is sweet, fruit, and bitter. He liked it better than me, i am not big on IPA’s.

Had it on tap at a Lancaster Barnstormers game. Nicely hoppy, but not overly obnoxious like some beers. Its got a nice dark colour, good sweet flavour to compliment the hops, really very nice.

12 oz bottle via trade with DocLock (thanks!). Pours a semi hazy dark amber with average size white head. Smells of pine, citrus, and yeast. Tastes the same with a little grapefruit in the finish. Thin mouthfeel, a bit malty for an IPA called ’Hop Hog’. Pretty balanced aftertaste. A bit above average..

Bottle pours a slightly hazy light orange/amber witha very nice full creamy sandy colored head. Quite attractive. Thick persistant lacing. Aroma is fairly mild for the style, and has nice citrusy, notes to it. Flavor is actually quite tame for an IPA. I expected a lot more hoppiness, even after smelling it. The malt body, is nice, slightly woody, lightly toasted, and fairly dry and a bit thin. Balanced overall I’d say, but not a very daring entry. Hop pigglett maybe. Thanks goes out to Lukin013 for sending this one.

Holy crap, from the bottle the head was thick and creamy and lasted for days. Noticeable floral aroma. Hazy amber color. Not as hoppy as most IPA’s I’ve had, enough to make an impression but not overwhelming.

Bottle sampled. Pours amber with a large three finger thich off-white head. Aroma of fruit, citrus, and hops. The flavor is fruit, citrus, and vbery little noticeable hops, however the brew was very enjoyable and smooth for an almost 8% beer.

Bottle. Pours hazy orange gold, off white head. Aroma is peach, citrus and floral. Flavor is caramel, peach, and malt. Weak on hops, but interesting flavor. This is almost like a belgian dubbel.
