Pint at Steam Plant Grill. I agree with the previous reviewer. I have been enjoying Port Brewing Hop-15 IPA recently. Too bad for the Rockford Bay IPA. There was nothing distinctive about the Rockford Bay IPA. Perhaps an IPA in name only. I was expecting/hopping/hoping(!) for more.

Draft in Moscow, Idaho. Pretty weak ass IPA. Lacking in just about every way you would want an IPA to taste... def leans closer to a pale ale in all aspects - aroma, flavor, abv. Had a little buttery aspect to it. Thin bodied, highly drinkable, soft, inviting, and very average. Your standard brewpub single IPA.

Slightly darker golden then a pale lager with a light fluffy head. Nice big citrus hop aroma. Hoppy and bitte upfront and throughout the mouth. Not overly complex but a nice bitter flavour throughout.

Draught @ CDA in Spokane: Dark golden, slight brown hue, moderate foamy head, leaving nice rings of lacing.   Fairly lively too.   Soft hoppy nose, a little graininess and earthy on the nose.   Mild bitterness on the tongue, moreso like a strong Pale Ale.   There appears to be a slight buttery aspect, tiz minor tho.   Moderate body and mouthfeel.   Finishes with a soft bitterness, slight astringency, with a little butter mixed in.   Tiz okay, but was hoping for a bit more.
