Apparently they're not making their Pale Ale anymore, but they do have this great IPA. Perfect dark roasty red color with staying head. Exceptionally smooth with slight hoppy finish. Very good.

Odd that this is the normal name, since they call it IPA at the brewery. Smells like an IPA. While not oustanding in anyway it is still very drinkable, go-down-easy session beer. Which I like.

Im going to put my rating here. On tap at the 2008 Strong Ale Festival and listed as an IPA although the notes say Big IPA and ABV of 8.6. Poured a medium golden-amber color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of some fresh hoppiness and earthy. Tastes of fresh hops, citrus, pine, and lighter caramel.

on tap at tenaya creek: usually what i get if there’s nothing special seasonal.. a good IPA but sometimes a little watery and thin for my liking, and of course its different from batch to batch, but pretty consistantly a decent IPA. could use more hops.. ;)

on tap at brewpub: i used to drink the pale ale , but this has now replaced it. and i guess by the taste this fits better in the pale ale range then IPA. once again served in a fronzen glass, blasted! slight nose of hops here. after tasting it you should be able to smell hops across the bar, not that it was that big but they are dominant. not really an IPA. too thin with not enough bitterness. easy to drink with little character. one of the better beers i had that night. good session. made for the masses not for a beer drinker looking for something a little special.

Pours copper with a thin off white head. Smells citrussy with some resiny hints. Tastes bitter and peppery with a splash of resin on the finish.

Draught at the brewpub
Light amber color. Light fruity aroma. Medium malty body, with nice hops, partially fruity, some resins, and some caramel in the final.
