We've brewed our filtered IPA for 13 years, and never considered offering the REAL (unfiltered) version that is naturally carbonated just as it comes out of our fermenters. Well here it is! We hope you enjoy our REAL IPA.

Appearance : Slightly hazed with fractional head.3-
Nose : Green wet hop leaf hops with rich ripe grown fruit touches.
Flavour/Palate :Slightly harsh with its short carbo bursts. Fruity middle with some hop accents. Finish was on creamy side ending abrupt. Uneventful lightly hopped IPA.

Pours a cloudy amber color with a big, white soapy head. Mild hoppy aroma matches the mild ddry slightly bitter hoppy taste. Light for an IPA and with little taste.

Cloudy yellow colour with white head. Musty hop aroma, dry wine like flavour, Large amount of carbonation. Kind of a dirty palate with dry bitters on the back of the tongue.

Long Trail’s IPA entry is a solid, if unexciting performer. Taking the stage it pours a slightly cloudy light amber with a solid medium-sized white head. The hop aroma is understated and a bit muted. Mouthfeel is prickly and ends with a long earthy hop finish. An easy drinking session IPA. Could be a good BBQ beer, but not good enough to stand on its own.

Interesting. I expected to hate it ... I don’t like Long Trail much to begin with, and the reviews were pretty awful. Actually, the beer is not bad. Looks more like a Belgian Saison than an IPA ... lemon meringue cloudy yellow with a big firm foamy head. Vanishes, leaving some lace. Nondescript nose. Tastes like floral (English) hops rather than the more common pine and grapefruit west coast hopping. Good bitter finish. Not enough malt to balance out the attempt at British hopping but not as bad as the ratings.

Nice IPA. I would have hit it higher but I thought the long lasting bitter finish was a bit much. Cloudy yellow with a pine hop nose. Grapefruit citrus taste. Moderate bitterness.

Bottle: Some citrus hops and with a fruity malt charactor; nice slick palate and malty finish; underhopped.

Really floral smell. Taste has moderate hops. The finish is actually really nice and refreshing, different from the rest of the beer. A little bitter and a little fruity. A quite all right IPA, probably under-rated by at least a little.
