Amberish with a decent head. Floral, sweet aroma and flavor. Pretty sweet, finishes slightly bitter... pretty tasty. I’d say it’s more of an IPA (as is in its name) than a bitter (as it’s listed). Flavorful and a good summertime brew.

grikmok (132) - Little Rock, Arkansas, USA - MAR 31, 2010
Had this on tap at Flying Saucer. Was really good, though not as hoppy as a traditional IPA. The initial taste was sweet with roasty malts notes. Ended with a bittersweet taste. Not bad.

Cask, GBBF 2004. Gold, poor head and low condition. Good citric hoppy nose with hints of chalkiness, sweet malt and gentle hops in the mouth and a grainy finish with lingering hop bitterness.

Cletus (6025) - Connecticut, USA - NOV 7, 2009
Hand pull cask at Delaneys. Pours a hazy amber with a thin white head. Smells of resiny hops, some sweet caramel, peppery. Tastes lightly resiny with some mapley hints. definitely different.
