Tap. I missed it last time around, but this stuff is back in honor of Lance's attempt at a 5th title. Tastes like an IPA with a little extra malt thrown in there, but it somehow stays very balanced with a very crisp character. I could see this being a good seller; the clean crispness gives it good mass-appeal while the nice balance and hoppiness keeps it selling to us fanatics.

One of bitter end’s best. Wonderful balance of malt and hops. A little less malty than their imperial pale.

Excellent beer! Hazy orange color. As hoppy as a sierra nevada, but balanced extremely well....beautiful malty sweetness which accompanied the fresh hop taste.....one of the best pale ales I have ever tasted.
