Decent English-style IPA, but not overly exciting. And I’m not just saying that because it wasn’t heavily dosed with hops or anything. I liked its bready malts and overall earthiness, but I just didn’t like the way the hops melded. That said, it was easy to drink and it was enjoyable ... perhaps just a bit lacking in the personality department.

Bottle from beer swap 2.0 - finally got around to trying this - sorry to say that I’m not all that impressed - moderate hop aroma, with some overly sweet, chewing gum smell, almost like juicy fruit (yea, odd, I know) - that quality carries over to the flavor as well, and is rather off-putting - I’ve never been a fan of fuggles hops, and their abundance here is only a negative for me - quite bitter, yet still fairly sweet in the finish, giving it balance, if nothing else.

Small, soapy white head, slightly cloudy, copper/dark golden body...Pleasant, but light aroma, with hops, herbs and minerals. The flavor is decent, but also pretty light for an IPA. The finish is very thin, with a hint of grapefruit, but somewhat even watery. An easy to drink, lighter beer.

12oz bottle. Thanks Immy! pours burnt orange with a small white head that settles into a thin film and leaves decent lacing. funky hoppy nose with a nice malt presence. very balanced flavor. nutty. nice smooth mouthfeel. medium bodied. nice ipa.

I thought this was an underated IPA. Pours out a nice deep amber color with a small white head. Aroma is very hoppy, grassy and full of citus. Flavor was very much the same. I found it very pleasant to drink and look forward to drinking more.

(Bottle) Pours a clear copper body with a moderate white head. Nose of flora, biscuits, and caramel. Flavor of floral/pine hops and malt.

Bottle. Sweet pineapple/orange hops aroma. Clear orange-amber color with small head. Pineapple-orange hops and malt flavor - extremely well blended with neither flavor overwhelming the other. Very nice - one of the best IPAs I’ve had in a while.

A very good English style IPA. Malt and hops are present, but do not overtake each other. A bit sweet on the tounge, only for a moment, with a nice bitter finish. Bartender pour me another.
