Bear Republic Racer 5

[1586-20080816] 12floz bottle. Citrus hops and lemon seed aroma. Clear, light orange brown body with a quick foamy white head. Bitter lemon seeds flavour. Medium body. Quite bitter.
(@ Cole’s IPA Festival; Buffalo, NY)

Sampled from 22oz bomber: poured a bright orange colour with a full floraly(?) aromatic head. Well carbonated, mouthfeel was full, creamy and pleasentely hopped. Initial taste is of sweet yet subtle carmel, faintly bready, lightly roasted malts, then comes the hop kick, noticeably piney and balanced. Deep earthy characteristics- overall a nice agressive ipa- just like the label suggests.

Mmmmmm....citrus one night standing my tongue and leaving in the morn. Alright? Yeah, for sure. Seriously? On of the best regular ol IPAs available. Has the hoprofile of an imperial. 7% is perfect for such a ber. Yummmm...

At RateBeerians Tasting. Bottle: Delicous IPA, a great example for the style. Top specimen.

Gracias hawie desde sta monica hasta el salvador parece una cerveza sencilla pero se complica porque es buena

bottle form joekinty: pours a very clean and clear golden honey orange with a large fluffy white head. aroma is full of sweet hops with a good mix of pine and citrus and excelletn amount of malt to go alon g with the hops, some good fruity bread aroma also, very nice. flavour is a stivky pinie hops and a refreshing citrus hop blend that is very welcoming, the sweet malts play in the background to complete this gem, slight bread flavour in the finish a great ipa.

Aroma is citrus, and some pine, pours hazy copper, nice carbonation and body, flavor is citrus, pine and some swwet maltiness, very balanced for an American IPA, leaves a light pine after taste, one of the better IPA’s i’ve had.

Hazy light copper. Starts out with a puffy white head that dissipates to just around the rim of the glass, but it still leaves pretty good lacing. Pine/Pine-Sol aroma with a similar taste. Tons of hops, but I didn’t detect a malty counterpart.
