Rebranded now as Back Pocket GPA. Pours a golden color with a big head and good lace. The aroma is lightly sweet and malty with some good herbal hoppiness. The flavor has plenty of spicy and herbal hops with some crackery malt character. The beer is dry and enjoyable all around.

Not terrible. It is nice to have german hops in an IPA since German hops are some of the tastiest, but this one doesn’t deliver on a few levels.

On draught at the Old Man River brewpubs in McGregor, Iowa. Pours a semi-clear golden amber colored brew with a creamy off-white head that leaves behind some excellent lacing. Aroma of roasted biscuity caramel malt with a hint of floral and citrus hops. also some light fruits and a hint of space. Taste is when the hops really shine. Nice balanced biscuit malt and floral hops. Finish has a multiple-hop profile with floral, grassy and citrus character. The best to describe this is an English Pale Ale flavor with an American West Coast caliber hop finish.
