Taste 7/9 bottle. Looks: Gold body with a thin head. Aroma: Muted malt sugars and some spicy hops. Taste: A rather malty IPA. Not very hop heavy compared to the recipe. An ok brew, nothing to brag about.

Jan 6, 2010 Fomr a 12 oz bottle courtesy of Joe McPhee this poured a light orange with a good and long lasting white head and very stick lacing rings. The nose is a strong citrus aroma. The body is medium and the mouthfeel smooth, slick, and delightful. The flavor mirrors the nose with lots of good citrus and a hint of pine. Long, lingering bitter finish. This is a top-flight IPA.

Jan 5, 2010 Bottle. Wow. Sweet & hoppy floral-smelling aroma with fruit-blossom bordering on lilac scent. Taste is initially semi-sweet caramel malt, but flavor segues quickly into a white-peppery spiciness. Aftertaste is a garden-fresh, hoppy combination of white pepper, green pepper, and grapefruit. Aftertaste stuck with me for 5 minutes after leaving the bar. Somewhat lighter than average body for an IPA. This beer is very well put-together, and has a beautifully complex taste. I’m not a huge IPA fan normally, but this one is a winner!

Jan 4, 2010 12 oz from Warehouse Wine and Spirits in Spring Hill, FL. Pours yellow-orange with a small, white head. Nose is citrus like crazy: orange, tangerine, almost pineapple with caramel and honey, too. Flavor is the same with lots of great citrus character. Light to medium body with lingering sweetness.

Jan 3, 2010 (bottle) A cloud, light-orange beer with a sizeable off-white head. Wonderfully fruity and floral hop aroma that is sweet and clean. Hop flavor of grass and citrus with some toffee or caramelized sugar notes. Body is nice - medium to full. Bright and refreshing up front and a very bitter finish. Satisfying thirst quencher, but plenty enjoyable besides that.

Jan 3, 2010 This beer reminded me of Bristol Edge City IPA in almost every way. The color was a light orange with a white, loosely bubbled head. The smell was sweet and a little floral. The taste was also sweet and no hop bitterness to be found. The drinkability was good as the alcohol was well hidden. I did feel the alcohol after the pint was gone. I am now interested to try Clipper City’s other offerings.

Jan 3, 2010 Excellent IPA, with strong but balanced hop flavor and aroma. Good balance, not too strong.

Dec 28, 2009 Had on tap at Sharx sports pub in RI. Chose this based on cool pirate themed tap. Hoppy and refreshing nice surprise from a place that doesn’t have great selection. I really liked it despite being very hungover.

Dec 27, 2009 12 ounce bottle from the local beer store. Pours a clear golden hue with a small white head. A sweet citrus hop aroma, earthy malts. A similar sweet citrus hop flavor, clean and nice. A smooth brew.
