i like all of avery’s beers, and this one is fruity and flavorful enough to be a rogue product. mango peel orange-yellow, very light haze, like an ozark morning. citrusy and dried fruit, swell flavor and comparatively lite-bitter finish. send some to your thirsty troops abroad! maybe i should rate this one extra high to offset certain weenies who don’t like IPAs and drag the collective rating down...

Flaxen color - full white creamy head. Very sweet hoppy aroma. Has a real flowery taste. All the IPA's up till this point including this one have helped me realize that I love IPA's. Hoppy full-flavored and perfectly bitter.

12oz Bottle No Date.This IPA poured a clear golden color with a thick snow white head that sticks to the glass. Beautiful hop aroma that is fruity with notes of peaches and grapefruit. Body is smooth with a slick mouthfeel. The flavor is an absolutely delicious blend of hops and malt. Lots of citrus and a good dose of bittering hops make this a winner. If Avery would ever come to Florida, I would never thirst for a good brew.

I liked this IPA. Dark gold with little head. Stinky. I can't put my finger on it but a little bit of pine in the scent; very distinct aroma. Flavor is very hoppy with no sweetness. Lasting bitterness in the finish. Different than the usual American IPA.

UPDATED: JUL 15, 2008 Pours a clear amber/yellow with a medium-sized mostly white head that has decent staying power. Some bubbles. Good lacing. Aroma is awesomely hoppy -- one of the best I’ve smelled, with pine, spruce, and citrus tones. Hops are everywhere in the flavor. Ends in a long bitter finish. It seems nicely balanced to me, but I’m a definite hophead and can never get enough. I’m thinking that this will be one fo my favorites for some time. Modest alcohol for an IPA, but man is this one tasty!

UPDATED: DEC 11, 2008 [bottle] Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a thick white head and very little carbonation. Definite citrus aroma with a strong hint of grapefruit and hops. Good citrusy flavor upfront that gives way to a strong hoppy bite and a slight peppery and bitter finish.
