Commercial Description:
Our IPA has lots of malt and hop character. This style originated during Queen Victoria’s reign as a strong, flavorful ale, which was able to survive the ocean voyage from England to India during the British occupation.

Solid brew. Golden pour with a quarter inch clean white head. Piney hops with a bit of malt in the aroma. More of a citrus hop flavor with some caramel malt and earthiness.

Bomber picked up in Arizona by Eric, thanks man. Pours a clear copper color with a nice thick white head and lots of lacing. A very light aroma; some malts and light perfume hops. The taste is quite nice; lots of smooth and grapefruit like hops, s strong malt profile provides a lot of balance. Leaves your palate with light bitterness. Some bready/biscuit flavors also. A nice creamy mouthfeel. Very nice. Somehow this is my first beer from AZ!

Bottle from Hellbilly. Thanks! Poured a nice bright golden orange, absolutely clear with a nice head. There are some aromas of toasted malts, lighter hop notes in the form of perfume, pepper, orange. Flavors of sweet-ish caramel, toast, and nice pepper, floral, and citrus hops. Kind of thin on the palate. The hops are light and dont linger for too long. A nice sessionable IPA.

Light bronze colored beer with a fully lasting white head of filmy cream. Nose is very British, has some depth and complexity. There is a lot of malt character to it, with some biscuit and caramel. Some nice hops as well. Unfortunately, it a diacetyl bomb, which makes the beer basically suck.

Deep copper color pour with a good sized foamy head that sticks around. Aroma and flavor are dominated by citrus hops, with underlying maltiness. Still, the hops are not overpowering at all. In fact, I think it could use more. Average on the palate with a short bitter finish. Not bad.

Bottle from sparky27. Light orange in color. Good aroma of hops. Nice hop character but not overdone. Soft on the palate, easy to drink. Well balanced but simple. Good IPA thanks E!

Bomber. Pours a crystal clear amber with one finger foamy white head and nice lacing. Nose is malt and citrus hops. Taste is sweet malt, some floral and citrus hop profile with a mild resin finish. Light-to-medium mouth feel. Decent IPA. Nothing really sticks out, but nice and drinkable.

22oz bottle acquired in trade with FlacoAlto (thanks!). Poured a medium and clear orange color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of citrus, floral green hoppiness, earthy, and spicy. Tastes of citrus, toasted malts, and earthy. Thinnre body. Definitely an Englist style IPA vs. a Hop Bomb.
