Commercial Description:
Ready to buck convention? We took the traditional IPA, originally shipped from Englad to India in the 1700s, and made it bolder and more flavorful - American style. We've added new varieties of highly aromatic American hops to create a distinctive bitterness profile and an incredible hop character. Hop on, hold tight, and enjoy the ride!

Poured a brilliant and clean dark yellow, light amber with little head but the carbonation was good and left lacing. The aroma was strongly grapefruit hops with little malt. There was a strong citrus flavor, particularly grapefruit along with some pine notes at first, the bitterness is right up front and dominant. As the beer warms the bitterness mellows and the beer really mellows out and blends into a nicely balanced drink. Good job.

Bottle. Brilliantly clear with a nice steady thick white head. Really nice looking light copper with slow-rising carbonation. Aroma of American hops, light pine and big citrus. Flavor is clean with understated bitterness and good flavor. Highly balanced with a good creaminess and some light carbonation on the tongue. Very easy-drinking, really nice IPA.

12 oz bottle. Tons of fresh cedar in the aroma. Spicy and fresh. Pours a clear medium amber with a fluffy head. Prickly near the back of the tongue, pleantantly bitter, a powerful hop presence gives way, a little shorter and drier than some west coast brethren, but very sharp and clean. Oranges and grass make themselves known. Very good. Thanks Malcom!

Bottle courtesy of aplusbreaks. Pours gold with a generous white head. Smells of resin, some caramel, some yogurt. Tastes peppery and earthy with a spicy sweet finish.

Bottle. Pours an amber color with a decent beige head. Taste is of pine, hops, some caramel and citrus. Aroma is much the same. For the price this is a pretty good beer.
