COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This big, rich IPA features Simcoe hops which give it both a fruity, piney hop nose and a clean, ringing bitterness. IN-between, the malt flavor is slightly caramel for a touch of malt sweetness. This IPA is well-balanced and very expressive with hops.

TomDecapolis (4221) - Lawrence, Kansas, USA - JAN 12, 2013
Pours a deeper orange amber with a medium creamy bubbly off white he’s that laced. Aroma of caramel malt and some citrusy and piney hop notes. Nose wasn’t as hop forward as I would have expected from this IPA. Flavor of caramel and nutty malt notes...the orange/piney American hops are there. But I would have liked for them to shine some more and wish this was less malty and dryer. I might have gotten an older bottle, however there doesn’t seem to be any kind of dating on the bottle so there is really no way to tell.
