Commercial Description:
No mere beverage could satisfy the thirst of the courageous and gallant soldiers who stood guard over the colonies of the British Empire. Their thirst could only be quenched by a full-bodied hearty Ale; an Ale balanced with rich flavorful hops. We are proud to offer our interpretation of this English style India Pale Ale for those who loong for the time when once your duty was complete, the taste of a fine Ale was reward enough for a job well done.

This is the hoppy beer for the cross over beer drinker. Nothing over the top or offensive, try it . It is good.And I enjoy this. Try it if you can.

bottle, acquired via trade with lmgraz1, thanks lou. pouse a clear, dark straw color with a nice foamy head. aroma and flavor of sweet malt and some hops. very well balanced and slightly dry on the finish. the only negative I found is that for an IPA it could have been a little stronger on the hops. Overall, a very solid offering from Cricket Hill. this would make a wonderful session brew!

Pours copper with an off white head. Smells of citrus, pine and wildflowers with some hay in the background. Taste is of grassy hops with some decent citrus notes on the finish.

A good beer - but not necessarily a good IPA. By that, I mean that the taste is very good but not very hoppy (which is typical of an IPA). It’s actually sweeter than hoppier. Very drinkable.

Slightly cloudy golden orange with a big rocky white head. Big salty/spicy hop aroma. Hops right up front in the form of some impressive piney, grapefruit rind flavors. Hops dominate throughout. Slight "off" flavor at the finish, otherwise, pretty good! thanks to Lou18 for the trade.
