2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft in Chattanooga w/ Shag/Clash. Full amber color with a decent initial head. Retention was not as good as the better IPAs, nor was the lacing, but decent. Aroma was piney with some citrus hopping also going on. Flavor was pine and citrus hop water with some caramel malts mixed in. Pretty drinkable, yet not a stellar IPA, beatable even by many a pale ale. Mouthfeel was average for the style.

On tap at the Nashville location. It has a gold-copper color and an off-white head with lots of lacing. The aroma is somewhat mellow, mainly with piney hops. The flavor is also mellow for an IPA, with hops and a bit of spiciness up front and some malt in the middle and aftertaste.

On tap at Hamilton Place location. Pours hazy golden orange with a white head. Aromas of grassy hops and some light citrus. Flavors of grassy hops, light citrus, pale malts, but packs a decent amount of bitterness. Not the most flavorful IPA, but is drinkable.

Pours clear light orange. Almost no aroma. Very light citrus hop profile. Good, but light.

Tap at Disney, pours an amber rusty color, small
head. Aroma is citrusy with grapefruit predominating.
Taste has some bitterness and tastes is citrus and
floral. Again not bad when you are at Disney among
tourists tauting their Bud Lights and Miller Lights. Quaff
Score 6 / 10

On Tap. Pours a dark orange with a creamy white head and hoppy aroma. Taste is of hops, pine, and grapefruit with a nice bitter finish. Drinkable, solid IPA.

Draft. Pours golden orange with a white head. Citric hoppy aroma with sweet malty notes. The flavor has sweet citric hops and candy sweet malty notes. Good stuff.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
This beer suffers greatly from being pushed into a popular style without the necessary features. As an IPA, this brew is an underhopped bummer. As a regular American Pale Ale, it fares much, much better. Unfortunately, it’s been declared an IPA, so I have to rate it as such. And the results are very average. The flavor has a deep malt vein that runs underneath, which proves too much for the mild hops (mild, of course, being relative.) The hops are apparent, piney with a hint of citrus, but the malts trounce any blossoming IPA-dom. This beer would probably rate in the mid-3s as a APA. As it is, blah. So just ignore their signs and treat it as a regular Pale.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bronze amber body, ok head. Sharp bitter hop nose, somewhat metallic. Off-bitter hoppy flavor with the re-emergence of the metallic quality.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Not a bad beer but not a great IPA either. The hops are there full force on the nose. The palate and mouthfeel just don’t feel quite right. I didn’t like the balance and found myself wanting a different beer while drinking this.
