Commercial Description:
This India Pale Ale is an exciting beer with a floral in aroma and an incredible hop flavor. The maltiness is increased (over a regular pale ale) to help balance the aggressive hop usage. This contributes to the higher alcohol content as well.

Stellar beer, very balanced, and very drinkable. One of the best IPAs around, I even like this better than Hopdevil!

The 2003-2004 Hoppy Trails IPA is different than previous years. Extra hops added in the brew kettle, the addition of a hop back, and extra dry hops, have made this IPA extrodinary. If you are looking for an athenic English style IPA, this is one to try. Get it while you can, it is a seasonal release only available for a few months.

on tap-pours a creamy offwhite head that laces with gold-copper color. Aroma is medium hops. Taste is medium hops with a good bite, citrus. Good carbonation.

Awesome appearance!!! Nice copper/light orange color, with an awesome white head which left a mound of foam in the glass until it was finished. Aroma is of a god amount of hops, however it is not overdone. Flavor is of some malt- and lots of hops. I would want more hops but it is well done.

Nice crisp hop aroma. Good copper/orange body & great hop bite in the taste. A very nice IPA - although I think it might be a bit thin.
