COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Aromatic hops accompanied by bold flavors of citrus; crisp and refreshing from start to finish. Connecting the Indian River Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian River Inlet provides fishermen and seafarers alike coastal and off-shore adventure. When stormy weather abounds, strong currents and large swells test the skills of local surfers

12 oz. Bottle. Nice golden color with a light head. Not very hoppy for a IPA but has enough flavor to leave a nice lingering taste. Will purchase again.

Ed5388 (521) - Forked River, New Jersey, USA - APR 20, 2013
On tap. Pours a clear deep amber color with a creamy off white head. Aroma of sweet and bready malts, with a hint of bitter hops. Taste has a mildly sweet malt body, a little grainy, and lots of sharp hop bitterness.

(12oz bottle) class medium gold, ring of offwhite bubbles. Nose of malty hops, agave, light manure and funk, subdued, very subtle tropical and citrus notes. Taste of cream, light citrus peel bitterness, funky (not intentional), light bitter linger.

The beer was a good baseline IPA, but overall nothing special. It carried a good aroma, and solid initial taste, but lacked an all around memorable experience for my tastebuds. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Poured a nice dark amber color with a thick white head, malty aroma, bitter hoppy taste, citrus notes... Refreshing taste. Nice beer (not great but nice).

12oz bottle-tight rich lt tan-amber. A-herbal/some resin, 2nd med malt. T-herbal/some resin hops with some bite, 2nd med malt-toffee. A bit odd. Heavy carbonation.

Not really an IPA. Hop flavor is fleeting and disapointing. Another mediocre offering.

EithCubes (4199) - New Jersey, USA - OCT 21, 2012
Bottle. Nose heavily citric and hoppy, milder caramel/crystal malt base but with a nice touch of orange peel at the end. Pour is a pretty red-amber with a rocky beige head. Taste lightly sweet but that’s soon overwhelmed by the medium bitterness, a little doughy, touch of spice, dry swishy malt but not grainy, creamy if crystalline medium body. Pretty appropriate all around for an IPA, and I’m happy with how it gains a little steam with volume -- really rounds into form, especially the elements that make up that hop bitterness.
