Bottle courtesy Gillard. Pours a clear copper with a one finger lasting off-white head that leaves good lacing. Aroma is full on floral and citrus hops with a hint of sweet malt in the background. Taste is citrusy and slightly grassy with a hint of mint on the finish but it lacks the malt sweetness to balance it all out. Medium mouthfeel with a moderate amount of bitternees. Very good.

Faint pale orange pour with a two finger thick with a dirty light copper head and nice lacing. Flat floral aroma with a touch of citrus note. A chalky finish with some grapefruit and malt.

Aroma is strong of floral and citrus hops. The beer looks very nice with a fluffy head and a slightly couldy orange color. Very nice bitter & citrusy hop flavors balanced with a bit of carmely malt. Not too hard to drink, but packed with flavor.

In short: A smooth juicy, caramelized and well balanced IPA. Not intense but very well put together.
How: Botte 12oz, probably fresh, consumed two weeks after getting it as a bonus in my too many in-person DLD trades. Forget who to thank for this one but it’s a BIG thanks.
The look: Clear orangey amber body with a small off-white head
In long: A smooth an fluffy body, rather yeasty for he style. Orange peels, citrusy fruits and some grapefruits wrapped in smooth caramel. Medium bitterness level that doesn’t stick around very long. This is not one looking for extreme intense IPAs, this is a well balanced smooth and extremely drinkable IPA. Intensity is not always a quality, my cousin Louis is considered intense…

Poured from a 12oz bottle and served in a shaker. This IPA poured a mostly clear amber with a lasting head of fluffy beige foam. A small amount of spotty lacing was left around the glass. The aroma of the beer was made up of strong toasted caramel, toffee, pine, and oranges. The flavor was also run by caramel and toffee, along with a mild citrus bitterness. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with light carbonation. Not all that bitter, but very clean and smooth.

About time I get around to rating this. Pours a deep copper color with a medium creamy white head which fades very quickly and leaves some pretty lacing. Aroma is high in caramel malts with a bit of citrus and piney hops. Taste is piney and citrus hops up front with a decent caramel malt backbone. Well-rounded IPA, not very bitter, but also not very hoppy and fruity either.

Good solid IPA. Pours a deep copper, rocky white head. The aroma is quite hoppy and flavor is a nice rich caramel malt balanced with a good dose of piney hops. Big, clean finish. Yumm.

For one i love IPA’s. and this one was not too bad. All around it was a very well rounded beer. color, aroma, taste, palate. Less of an ass kicker than say the dogfish head IPA’s. But good.Im gunna age a bottle or two and see how it matures.
