Commercial Description:
Brewed to survive the voyage from England to India, this medium gold colored ale has a very assertive bitterness to create a decidedly hoppy pale ale

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden orange with a small white head. Solid grapefruity, light wineous fruity aroma. Flavour is fresh wine grapes, light leathery and vague spiced hops flavoured. Light fruity and solid bitter flavoured finish.

OC tour, tap at brewpub: Amber hue with a sticky lace. The aroma has notes of resiny and peppery hops, grapefruit, hint of caramel and bread. The taste has a nice bite and crisp bitterness. Metallic and astringent towards a spicy finish. This biting and aggressive IPA is quite drinkable and a solid offering.

Tap @ the brewpub. Poured a clear copper color with an off-white head. Citrus hops start out the aroma. Some caramel malt makes up the base. Citrus flavor from the start through the long semi-dry and moderately bitter finish. Some caramel malt. The bitterness keeps growing. Medium bodied.

Light orange and sharply bitter. This is a pretty unremarkable attempt, and unfortunately I didn't enjoy it very much.

Aroma of watermelon and tangerines. Gold color with a small head and nice lacing throughout. Full on bitterness right off the first sip that attacks the roof and sides of my tongue. Love that feeling. A real tongue buckler.

This is an average IPA. There is not much hoppy aroma, as it smells slightly sweet. It does have some noticable hop flavor upon first drinking it. The body of the beer is rather light for an IPA, as there really is no hint of malt to balance out the hops. It is bitter and hoppy, but almost wattery at the same time. You could probably drink a ton of these, as it does not fill you up.
