bottle - Pours coppery with a medium sized head that leaves ample lacing. The aroma has lots of citrus hops with grapefruit coming in especially strong. Strong citrus hops lead the flavor. They’re crisp and balanced by just enough malt to keep them in check. Rich and enjoyable, this beer is a fine example of the style.

Pours a deep golden amber with a nice fluffy egg white head and some great sticky lacing. Aroma is slightly medicinal, hoppy and finally dirty dishwater, also some peppermint and herbs upon second smell. This is a great over the top hoppy IPA with some very fresh lively acidity, citrusy zing and just slightly under-balanced on the malt side, but it works for it, as it comes through in a toasty, bready aftertaste. The finish is very crisp and dry, leaving you wanting more. Very nice and clean!

Grainy aroma with an earthiness and mild DMS hints. Aroma is of English hops. Perhaps this is an English IPA? Transparent light golden color with frothy white head. Somewhat sweet and mildly astringent in the middle. Decent maltiness and a decent bitter hoppiness. Not as hoppy as the description leads you to believe, though. A solid beer, but doesn’t really stand out or blow me away.

Light orange with a white head. The aroma is grassy and citrus hops with a little bit of biscuit malt mixed in. A well-balanced aroma. The flavor is caramel malt with some orange citrus and grassy notes mixed in. Balanced flavor with low bitterness. The beer is a very easy drinker. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

On draft at Stateline from a year old keg or so, surprisingly nice stuff! The pour was orangey in color, fairly white to slight off white colored head. The aroma was citrus, pine resin, and some light fruity elements. The flavor followed, citrus the feature, yet a firm bittering hop ending, perhaps with some of those noble/Euro style hops? Finish had a firm bitterness that was enjoyable, a touch dry, nice. Thanks, Robert!

Clear orange of color with a cloude beige head. A nice aroma of pines, raw malt, grape, sweet notes and hops. A nice flavor of grape and hops, notes of malt.

I’ve had plenty of IPAs, and this is the closest to unsweetened grapefruit juice I’ve found. Hazy golden-orange body with suspended floaties and a thick, puffy off-white head. Bright hops aroma heavy on grapefruit rind and pulp. The same grapefruit characteristics absolutely dominate the flavor profile, with malts being an afterthought. There are better IPAs, and many of them.

6 pack from total beverage in Westminster. Medium yellow, foamy white head. Nice hoppy aroma - more foaral than anything. Good taste - lots of malt for a thin to medium (yet carbonated) body, but lots of fora hops. A really easy drinking flavorful IPA with a surprising amount of malt. Good stuff.
