Commercial Description:
Alaskan IPA is honey gold in color with a fruity, citrus aroma. An enticing blend of hops and our dry hopping process, in which hops are added directly to tanks during fermentation, give this brew a very intense, complex aromatic character with a refreshing hop finish.

Light amber colour. Aroma has bread, bubblegum and only a little hop. Odd. Light, sweet palate with hints of peachy esters and bubblegum. Light bitterness in the back, but I agree with the esteemed Mr. Pitonka, it needs more hop! (Better malts and a more interesting yeast signature, too).

From tap at Stone Bistro. Pours golden yellow with a white head. Peachy and grapefruity hops aroma. Smooth and crisp hops flavour of the same. This keeps lingering into a lovely fruity hops finish. Very smooth flavourwise!

Pours a transparent bright bronze with a thin, stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of slight grainy malts and some lemon citrus hops. Starts lightly sweet and pale malty with some earthy piny bittering hops toward a drier, bittersweet. This needs a bigger, more assertive hop presence, but it’s still quite drinkable.

12oz bottle Poured a light to medium and crystal clear amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of citrus, orange peel, and somewhat floral. Tastes of citrus, floral and a touch of caramel thrown in. Thinner body.
