Apr 29, 2008 Brooklyn East India Pale ale is a beautiful deep orange-red amber color with a very small and quickly disappearing head. The aroma is slightly hoppy and the flavor is very smooth and nicely malted. This is a very nice and refreshing beer.
I would have rated this higher is the head were more fully developed. This is a common problem amongst the Brooklys Brewery offerings I have tried.
This was a good choice for my 200th rating!

Apr 29, 2008 I’ll have to say it was a mistake drinking this beer immediately after Dogfish Head 90 Minute Imperial IPA. The pour looked terric and I decided to just take a big gulp but was qutie surprised how sour it tasted. I don’t quite agree with the amount of hops - it seems like it could be a little bit more aromatic and bitter.

Apr 29, 2008 Pours a thin darker orange with a creamy off-white head. Wonderful strong hop and English malt aroma with some mango/pineapple. Chewy malts and bitter grapefruit hop flavor. Lots and lots of resin and somewhat juicy. The English malts add some toastiness that sits oddly with the bitter hops, buttery. Medium bodied with fine sparkly carbonation and low stickiness. An interesting malty take on an IPA with what really seems like American hops.

Apr 26, 2008 12 oz bottle purchased at EZ Liquors. Pours a orange amber with an average size white head. Aroma did not have enough hop perscence for an IPA. Flavor had more bitterness then flavorful hoppiness. Blah.

Apr 26, 2008 35,5 cl bottle. Coppery orange colour, thin wthie head. Nice, fruity aroma (mostly lemon) with floral hops. Flavour is malts and caramel, finishing with a floral, hoppy bitterness. A decent beer, but the flavour is not very complex.

Apr 25, 2008 Updated: Sep 8, 2009Draft. Pours gold with a white head. Bready sweet malt aroma with a light amount of hops. The flavor has bready and sweet malts, as well as a solid dose of grassy/floral/light herbal hops. Pretty good.
