Very nicely balanced IPA. Received a growler as a gift. Not certain if available in other forms, as this is a very small brewer.

Special thanks to Ginny for buying this growler on vacation and keeping it cold back to Pittsburgh. The beer stayed fresh, and poured with nice co2 and foaming head. Great IPA! Well balanced, initial hop taste, medium body and hop/bitter finish. Nice flavor, right on style for an IPA. Today, I will finish that growler! Cheapdark, there is more where that came from!!

Was looking for something local to the Cape while visitting. Mos tof the microbrews in the area seem to be quite bland, and I have to say this is the exception. Maybe it’s due to the blandness of the others, but I thought this IPA was quite good. Definitely a standard IPA--tastes like a Pacific Northwest style hoppy variety. I liked it a good bit.

DIspensed from tap. Pale amber color with small head, nice aroma. Not too sweet or malty. Nice bitter taste.

Growler. Pours a copper orange with a thick off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt and floral hops. Flavor is mostly sweet caramel malt with some tropical fruits and light citrus. Not very hoppy really or bitter, more malt-forward for an IPA, but very delicious nonetheless. Full-bodied and easy to drink. I definitely recommend this beer! 7/4/8/4/15 (3.8/5)

GBBF Cask. Hazy amber beer, suddy pale tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry. Good fresh tasting hops. They border on that ’stinging’ sensation that you get from very fresh hops. Bitter citrus. Malt backbone supports well. Finishes semi dry with a mildly bitter aftertaste.

Draft. Perfect crisp and bitter IPA palate. Nice flavor to this one with a draft smoothness. A nice example of the IPA style.

Growler poured into a pint glass produced a finger worth of off white head that settled to a thick lace. The body of the brew was a amber brown in color. The aroma was a good citrusy floral hop. Throw in some bread yeast and you got it. The flavor is a great bitter forward IPA, with some good balance malts thrown in. The carbonation was good on it with a medium feel in my mouth. An easy to drink IPA I already had a few glasses from the growler. They went down great and I am ready for more

Pours deep amber into a shaker. Off-white head with medium retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Resin aromas. Crisp dark caramel upfront and well-balanced with a lasting resin finish.
