Commercial Description:
Brooklyn East India Pale Ale, originally a summer seasonal, has been getting raves since becoming a year round offering in 1996. Garrett Oliver, a student of English brewing and beer history, uses English malts and hops to brew his EIPA in the classic, heavily-hopped style of the 19th century beers created for British soldiers serving in India.

I tried this beer on September 24, 2009 at ’The Beerbistro" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a transparent golden orange with a thin white head that lasts. The aroma is citrusy with notes of pine and grain. The mouthfeel is medioum bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is grapefruity hops with some grainy notes. A very good beer.

Rich amber color; Medium body; Aroma of hops & citrus; Flavor of slightly bitter hops, some malt, and of course citrus notes; This one is not as bitter as other IPAs and easier to drink - but not very representative of the style.

Bottle. Poured a golden amber with an off-white head. Aroma had a mild citrus hop aroma. The flavor was also light on hops with a strong sweet malt profile.

Tried a sample at Brewfest Tallahassee. Definitely English in style, don’t expect to be bowled over with hops.

Pours dark amber. Aroma was pleasant and pungent. A good mouth feel and flavor with piney and citrus notes.. Pleasing and lasting on the palate. Strong alcohol content. Three of these left me very much inebriated. A very good, solid IPA for the price.
