3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Aroma is a mixture of strong hops (but not too much) with a mixture of apricot/citrus fruitiness. Very nice. The appearance is great - this beer pours a nice hazy amber with generous head that left a nice bit of lacing. The flavor is definitely sweet up front with a bitter hoppy finish, characteristic of the type and not at all unappealing. Mouthfeel is good but not spectacular. It comes off as somewhat thin overall, could use a bit more body to compliment the aroma/appearance. Overall a good IPA although certainly not the best I’ve had. Glad I could pick this one up while on a weekend trip to Albuquerque. Not sure if I’d be able to find it at home in Illinois.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Lovely light orange colour with a dense foamy head. Soft floral nose. Some initial marmalade and grapefruit with a sharp bitter finish. Decent, but gets a bit boring as I went through the bottle. Still i did enjoy the juxtaposition between light floral notes and more bracing grapefruit bitterness.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours dark straw colored. Small white head. Smell is light and citrusy. Taste is bitter, as is the finish. Juicy and balanced. Not a bad ipa.
1.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
Pours a light cloudy olive with a thick bubbly head out of a bottle into a pint glass which says "He looks like a pink nightmare." Aroma is sweet and not so hoppy. Aroma is a bit off and sour and alcohol, in fact. Flavor is non-existent. Am I drinking water here, or an IPA? I’m going to dump this so I can try something else. Thank you Bridgeport for wasting a bottle of beer. I can’t believe this is labeled as an IPA. Could this be a bad byo6pk bottle from Binny’s? The one I just had was good.

Bottle and on tap. A mild India Pale Ale. Balanced and crisp. Body is a bit thin. Light bitterness towards the end.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Looks good. Yellow gold. Not much aroma to speak of. Light citrus. More floral and herbal than anything. Not the hop taste I really enjoy. Not crazy about this one.
3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Not as hoppy as I would like for a IPA. It is still a nice beer with a smooth after taste. I wish it was more hoppy. It has a heavy carbonation...must use Praxair. Overall it is a drinkable beer. I would be happier if it was hoppier. After drinking one was not looking forward to drinking two

cool bottle. Great aroma, initial hoppy taste followed by a strong crisp citrus finish that eventually fills your whole mouth after a bottle or two. My advice- FIND this beer and try it! this is my favorite beer
