The most stout IPA I have tasted and I cant get enough of it. Excellent taste and color.

This is a very underrated IPA in my opinion. Light-colored but packs a punch with flavor. It has a very herbal fruity taste with moderate bitterness. Rich, velvety finish. I think I have overlooked this beer too often.

The first thing i thought of when opening this bottle was green apples. Overtook my senses. And it does have a very fruity aroma to it as well. Bought it just because it was a new IPA i haven’t tryed yet, and at $1.49, ill probably buy it again.

On tap at Crescent Moon Alehouse, 3/25/06: Light orange color with just a wisp of a head. Nice chewy hop character with a little citric bitter twist to finish it off. Very good.

Fine example of the style: good finishing hop aroma, but not dry hopped as far as I can tell. Solid measure of boiling hops. Copper/amber in appearance. Good head retention. UPDATE 9/13/7: Nitro pushed version of IPA on tap at the brewpub. Smoother and creamier. Tiny bubbles and thick head. Still a delicious beer.
