Beer pours with copper color and nice head with good lacing. Aroma of bread and odd mustiness. The flavor was mild caramel malts, lots of toasty graininess, some pine and herbal hop bitterness and a dry finish. This is an easy drinking beer. Not horrible.

Pours an orange copper with a thick off white head. Very nice floral slightly citrus aroma with a hint of earthyness. Solid IPA taste; chewy hops with a slight citrus tang and a nice malt body. Not a very bitter brew, which is a bit surprising considering the amount of hops in this. Tasty IPA.

Bottle. Pours clear orange, big off white head. Aroma is hoppy: kiwi, tangerine, lots of leafy bitterness. Flavor is hoppy, but lacks a good floral or citrus element. The body is a tad thin and the aftertaste is malty and slightly plastic. There is a nice lingering bitterness though. Not bad, but not strong.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber with a fluffy beigh head. Aroma of earthy and piney hops, citrus, floral and subtle caramel notes. Flavor is caramel malts, citrus and piney hops, grains and a touch of fruit. Light to medium body with a bitter finish.

Poured an auburn color with a crisp, hoppy aroma. Flavor was hoppy but not too bitter. Surprisingly good and smooth. Nice.

Bottle. Pretty bad if this is an IPA. HiPA is much better. Golden color pour with little hop fanfare. Pretty pedestrian. malts more prevelant than the hops here. One was enough
