Poured a slightly cloudy amber color with a small beige head. Fruity citrus aroma..sweet. Flavor is dominated by the piney and citric hoppiness...getting gradually bitter and dry in the end. Resiny and tasty.

Nice amber color, thin white lacing. Sweet and hoppy aroma and flavor. Overall, pretty good but I’ve had plenty better.

Pours slight hazy amber with a thin white head. Mostly hops in aroma with some floral/grassy notes. Flavour is well balanced and citric with a quite decent bitterness. Malty and somewhat roasty. Long aftertaste.

[12 oz. bottle] Citrusy aroma and flavors to match. Pours a nice amber color with a decent head. This brew was nice, but something bitter was left lingering in the aftertaste. A decent IPA.

A very heavily hopped brew. The hop flavor sticks to your palate long after the beer is finished. The main problem here is the balance...the beer is way too hoppy not to have any interesting malt flavors to add to its complexity..it seems thin and bland, and then delivers the heavy dose of hops. It succeeds admirably in the hoppiness department but forgot about the flavor department.

i dont often concentrate much on color, but this is perfectly burnt orange and very pretty. this would serve well as a session IPA but little else, the booze it lacks would have brought much more character to the brew. hops are present and definately tasty but overall bitterness is stifled, this is a bit mild for my tastes but certainly enjoyable.

12oz - Nice fresh IPA with what does seem to be the right amount of hops for an IPA. Hops are definitely there but not saturating the tongue. Good.
