Commercial Description:
English in style, this IPA is smoother on the palate than an American IPA. Hops upfront with a floral nose, that gently fade into the smooth malt backbone English IPA’s are known for. ABV: 5.9% Color: Dark Gold Malt: Pale, C-40, C75, Victory Hops: GR Magnum, UK Golding

On Tap at The Front Door Boise, Pours out a copper topp with a cream sand head. Aroma of citrus hops and a little malt. Tast was of more citrus hops along with some floral notes. There was a little bitter end.

Tap @ TFD: Light copper pour with a large, creamy beige head. Good lacing. Aroma is lightly citrus hopped with a fruity and malty sweetness. Flavor is very approachable without excessive hops. Florals, citrus, caramel, and toffee flow into a mildly bitter tail. A solid offering in what is intended to be an entry-level ipa.

At the Dog and Grog. Pours copper with off-white head. Citrus yet some roasted malt on the nose. Flavor is hoppy with a lot of bitterness. Not a lot of malt on the finish to balance it out, dry and bitter.
