Commercial Description:
Our interpretation of a legendary style is not for the timid. Strong, assertively hoppy and dangerously seductive. A skillful blend of three premium barley malts with generous amounts of Northern Brewer and Cascade Hops creates a special ale to satisfy even the most demanding palate.

Hazy apricot coloured, nicely laced head. Oily cascade nose, plenty of sweaty grapefruit, straightforward, simple, but effective. Restrained malty aspects. Dry palate, juicy, grapefruity and kinda floral though mostly citric. Light-medium bodied, low to average carbonation fits well. Good IPA.

MiBG Fest 2005:

Another beer for a change of pace just before the last few stouts...Coppery hue with a tight frothy head and good lace. The aroma has notes of herbal and grassy hops, bready malts, pineapple, and a dusty ester. The taste starts with a smooth delivery of bitters and citrus with a nice balance of pale malt. Not very complex but does the job well. The finish even has a bit of hop spice to it. A good brew and something I would drink again.

A solid IPA. Soft and aromatic hops and a smooth and slightly sweet malt make this a mild but very enjoyable IPA.

Hops are a lot more subtle then the bigger West Coast IPA’s. Taste is much differant, with almost a smoke taste to it with a tinge of honey.

Pours a cloudy dark amber. Man,the hop aroma from this is very citrusy.I like this a lot.Taste is more complex than the aroma as there is a perfumey hopiness and some sweet malts.Very nice brew.Thanks to Styles for this one.

Nice cloudy amber color with a large frothy off-white head. Sweet honey, malt and citrus hops aroma and flavors. Fairly thick feel with a nice dry hops finish.

Murky dark amber color with a large, creamy off-white head. The aroma burst out with great citrus (lemons, grapefruit, orange) tones, and a bready/sweet background. The flavor was quite sweet...honey maybe...with a huge citrusy/bitter hops character. The feel was rather thick, but still crisp on the tongue...semi-dry finish. Absolutely wonderful IPA. Thanks Wohlfs!
