Commercial Description:
The Upland Dragonfly IPA is a malty and hoppy brew. Note the clean malty fullness on the front of the palate with fruity citrus overtones, attributable to our special hops. Dry hopping creates a floral aroma, and our use of bittering hops lends a strong bitter taste in the back of the tongue and throat.

Nearly a perfect beer. Great hop character. Slight residual sweetness. Great restaurant, too!

The aroma had a strong hoppy smell which carried over to a good, sharp bitter aftertaste. The head was VERY big. I don’t usually go for IPAs, but I’d wager to say that this is the PERFECT example of what an IPA should taste like.

Basically a souped up version of their pale ale. A bit more malt - a ton more hops. True hophead delight in this glass. Citric hop nose and flavor whammo. Enough malt to keep it balanced. Nice bronze color.

Rather decent, pours very cloudy with a nice burst of hops. Sadly, this is short-lived, however the taste does stick to you while you consume this delightful beverage. I found this to be a excellent choice, rather cheap to get and it nice to grab after a hard day’s work.

A great IPA. Had on tap. Quite deep, reddish color with a moderate head. Smooth, hoppy, and oh so good. A really good beer that I look forward to having again.

Clear dark copper color with a big, long lasting, off-white head. Aroma of mild floral hops and malt. Flavor of malt, a little spice and floral hops. Finish is pretty hoppy and bitter. A pretty good and unique IPA.

Clear amber body, off-white head, nice lacing. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit, some caramel, floral, light orange. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit/floral/orange, some chocolate. Creamy medium body. Not an overly bitter IPA, just a well-balanced beer. Of course, when so many people expect a strong bitterness in their IPA, it really is no surprise the range of ratings for this one.

Light copper to amber body with some floaters. The head is dense and a light yellowish tan. The aroma is up front grapefruit with some nice alomonds behind it. There is also some toast. The taste is bitter bread crust and grapefruit. The finish is fairly strong fresh bread dough and a little bit spicy. The mouthfeel is full and a little sticky. Nice, for people like me that like a mild and well balanced IPA.
