Commercial Description:
This Ale is brewed with the best of Old and New World hops. Then we infuse the aging tanks with a dry hop addition of Cascade and East Kent Goldings to bring home the hops! Expect this Ale to pour a glass brimming with rich caramel flavors along with an intense hop aroma

Took me a long time to try this beer because I have spent my life hating spotted cow, belgian red (yes, belgian red), and the offensively bland Naked lager, but this was a life altering beer. Its a true masterpiece of the IPA style.

Beer pours an amber color with a rich creamy head, lacing lasts throughout. Strong hop aroma as you would expect, the smell lures you right into the beer. Taste is of hops and almost perfectly so. Mouthfeel, seems just about right, I do not know what could make it better. Drinkability is definately high, an evening of these would be almost unimaginably good. Yum.

Damn right it's Hearty! Fine amber color, highly carbonated, without a huge head. Massive grapefuit-like flavors dominate courtesy of the Cascades. Nicely rounded malt shows through as well.

The minute you open this one it is screaming with hops. Pours a very clear light orange color with a solid off white head that stays throughout the drink. A lot of hop flavor up front with a very balanced back end heavy in malt and hop bitterness. Not very heavy but more refreshing with a lot of flavor and bitterness in one. This is what IPA’s should be modelled after.

It may not be Hop Devil, but this is one good IPA in its own right. As the label warns, "not for the faint of heart". Not being faint of heart, I loved it. Heavy, pine-like hop aroma. Average-sized head; mostly lasting. Amber in color. Very tasty and hoppy. Not too perfumy. A very nice IPA.

Flower garden, honeycomb. Smooth mellow malt supports the hops nicely. Not overly bitter. Super glide to the next one. This is the beer that I would want to be stranded with on a desert island.

This is a mighty tasty IPA. When you pop the top of this one, you immediately notice the piney aspect of this ale. Thick frothy head and lacing throughout. Indica sticky pine flavor with nice malt backbone. IPAs don't get a whole lot better. Very enjoyable.
