Commercial Description:
British brewers of colonial times utilized the preservative qualities of hops and alcohol to assure that their "pale ale" survived the long trip to colonial India. We believe this to be one of the HOPPIEST brews in the States. ENJOY!

Large white head over a light orange body. There is a bit more malt than hops int he aroma. The flavor is well balanced hops and malt. More assertiveness is needed to really grab the attention of a hop head.

Bottle courtesy of ChazyRph. Pours pale golden color. Aroma was all grassy hops. Flavor very bland with a tiny bit of grassy hops in the finish. Didn’t remind me of an IPA at all.

A great IPA from vermont. Nice copper tones, loads of hops and a fresh clean finish. Another winner from Long Trail Brewing.

Dark straw color with hopcit and slight fruit aromas. Tastes hoppy, with a somewhat light palate, dry finish. Not bad, but not very balanced.

Bottle from Styles. Light amber colored with a fair white head. Some lacing. Lacking in hop aroma. A bit sour? Thin bodied. A fair IPA at best.

Bottle: Courtesy of Styles. Kind of a funky caramel, fruit, and very light hop aroma. Resembles and English Pale Ale more than an IPA based on aroma. Pours a transparent golden-orange with a small but somewhat large bubbled head. Very light in flavors. Almost pilsnerish with a light IPA character lingering slightly in the background. "One of the HOPPIEST brews in the States." Are you kidding me? If anyone outside of the US tries this for their first American IPA and buys into the advertising, they’ll miss out on several very good IPA’s. Don’t believer their hype!! Can I sue for false advertisement????? If I have a case here I can retire early, because these people will owe me a lot of money.

Bottled. Pale amber colour. Hoppy, citric nose with notes of vanilla. Pretty light bodied. Flavour is somewhat American PA-style, has a nice hoppiness with a restrained dryness/bitterness.
