Oct 5, 2008 Pours a slightly opaque golden amber with a fluffy white head that lingers as a cap for the duration and leaves minimal lacing. Aroma is of floral and citrus hops and a hint of spices on a bready malt base. The taste is similar to aroma with a big citrus hop kick up front before giving way to the biscuity malt base. The spices show up in the finish with a bit of pepper in there as well. The mouthfeel is fairly light and with the interesting spicy aftertaste. This is a unique and tasty IPA and one that I enjoyed.

Sep 24, 2008 The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Fruity-fresh aroma. Tastes hoppy and dry, very like wood. Grasy-dry finish. Strange, but good!
Big thanks to jjpm74 for the bottle!

Sep 2, 2008 Got myself a growler of this to bring to a back yard pig roast for the end of summer. Was a nice thing to pass around and share. amber coloring and a bubblely head mismatched a fairly light body. lot of bitterness in the taste but clean finish that made you able to take another sip soon enough. Was well suited for the big meal i got to have and the sunny day i enjoyed it on. Plus great value with it being 6.50 for 64oz.

Sep 1, 2008 Pours a sunset-gold with minimal white head and slightly ragged lacing. Piney Northwestern hop aroma with grapefruity undertones, quite sharply bitter on the palate, with a very mild bready malt backbone, but pretty aggresively hoppy, with a strong, tonic-like finish. All in all, a solid, typical micro IPA.

Aug 29, 2008 Bottle of Opa-Opa IPA thanks to jjpm74. I guess this is bottled in New York and the brewpub is in MA. Pours a clear golden hue with a medium white head. The aroma is full of rich caramel malts and tons of sweet hops. The flavor is quite full; initial caramel and sweet citrus flavors followed by a lingering metallic and bitter hop. Quite dry in the finish also. Very nice. A medium and carbonated mouthfeel.
