Commercial Description:
This one's a beauty; a rich and full bodied India Pale Ale with complex malt character blended with cascade and noble hops. The end result is a beer that satisfies the "hop head" out there and won't chase away the newcomer. Drink it. It's good.

12oz can.Clear orange copper with a medium head that fell rapidly. Carmelized malts dominate aroma with good dose of grassy floral hops. Flavor is carmelized malt accentuated with some grassy hops. Moderate bitterness mostly balanced by the malt sweetness. Medium body with a semi-dry finish with some residual hop bitterness.

Cloudy amber with medium white head. Sweet hoppy aroma with caramel notes. Sweet flavor with fruity, hoppy and vegy notes. Ends bitter.

thanks to miketd for this one. Opaque dark golden color with a huge off white head. The first thing that hit me was the maltiness up front in the flavor and the hops sneak in there for some very nice balance. This isn’t your ’hop bomb’ IPA, but an IPA with some nice balance and hoppiness.

Bronze color and pours a decent sized head with some spotty lacing. Aroma is rather fresh with malts, caramel and sugary, candy hops. Sweet brown sugar flavor, thick toasty malt, caramel, resinous hops and some honey. Finishes slightly bitter and dry. Interesting flavors. It is a bit too sweet and malty of an IPA for my liking but it’s a good beer.

Pours light amber from the can with a very thin head. Citrus hops and slight malt aroma. Good hoppy flavor with enough malts to smooth it out nicely. Almost definitely the best beer I’ve ever had from a can!

A nice IPA coming out of a can. Hints of caramel, orange, and some bitterness rolling down my tongue. Great graphics on the can.
