This version has slightly less alcohol, bitterness and slightly more color than the bottled version. The hop varieties and malts used are the same.

Wow, I love American hops. Really great beer. Looks fairly uninteresting, like a million lagers. The taste is something different though. I’ve tasted only a few American pale ales but the hoppiness of this makes it seem special to me.

Pale amber, thin head. Good bitterness with a sweet finish. A good IPA to return to.

This Beer is a beer by which many others are to be judged by. It is almost perfect.

Can’t believe I haven’t rated this, had a few of these after my softball team won our championship game last night. Aroma is nice and citrusy, cascade all the way. Pours amberish, small white head. Flavor is well balanced, nice malt backbone with a mild bitter finish. Classic beer, good stuff.

Poured a lot of this off the draft at the Summertime Brews Fest. Tastes pretty similar to the bottled, just a bit noticeably toned down. I think I heard it was because of the whole drinking and driving thing. Becuase people couldn’t drive after drinking out of the bottle.

Draught at The Ginger Man (Manhattan - NY).
Fine head of much supporter head with beautiful brown/orange color lightly loaded. Fresh and a lot sweetish aroma with detached notes of dampen wood and humid malt. Fresh and flowery taste with a most pleasant bitter on the end. Discreet alcoholic perception and a lot extended final.

orange, small but firm head. Not as aromatic as the bottle version, but that grassy hop feel is still there. Nice session
