1L growler, pours clear golden hue with a nice white head and floral/grassy/caramel aroma. Huge grassy explosion as it hit the tongue (centennial?) with the slight caramel flavour in the backround, tastes quite fresh. This beer has loads of flavour and it all mingles well, decent IPA.

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 50belair (1034) - Florida, USA - MAY 7, 2012
On tap at Bir & Fud. Clear amber pour with a white head. Piney hop aromas. Clean, crisp, and refreshing. This is one of the better IPAs I have had in Italy. Creamy mouthfeel with good body, and balance. Somewhat fruity hop notes with enough pine resin to make it not overly sweet and a sturdy malt backbone. Well done. I imagine the draft version is the only way to go with this beer....
