Tap at the restaurant. Poured a darker yellowish, orange color. Aroma was faint spruce, grass, and pine. Flavor was very well balanced. malts up front with a mild hop bitterness in the finish. Not your typical IPA but still very drinkable. Drank more like a pale ale, than IPA.

Sampled at the brew pub. Clear and copper with a thin layervof beige foam. A mix of european hops and American. They are mildly sulphur and citrus. An interesting mix that works. Rich malt adds plenty of sweetness tilting the balance. Fruity and sugary. A nice beer.

Dark golden color with thin white head. Aroma is fruity and citrusy hops. Flavor is well balanced from malt to hops. Not a lot of deep flavors or aromas there. Overall a solid IPA though.

It poured a dark copper color with an off-white head. The aroma was very hoppy. The flavor was of citrus, with some sweet malt in the background. My favorite brew at Flat Branch.

I had this as Ed’s Favorite IPA - not sure this perfectly fits the description, but its aliased. Nonic pint glass pour at the brewpub in Columbia, Missouri. Pour is a slight haze orange copper with an off white head. Aroma is leafy green dank hops, maybe some garlic mixed in. Taste is the dry bitter dank hops in front with a bit of light toasted malt and finishing with dry mineral. Really extraordinarily dry finish. Palate medium, unfiltered drying finish. Nice, bitter dry beer - a fresh dank IPA, which I like.

Opaque medium gold body with a bright white head. The nose is meaty with some oranages. There is also walnuts. The taste moldy old orange juice. There is a strange peanut finish. Notes of dry wood through out. Meh.

Pour is a copper with an average white head. Aroma is some eathy malt and a dash of the hops. Flavor is a sweet malt with caramel and grain. An ever so slight hops comes out toward the end. This is diffanatly an English style IPA with a bigger sweet malt profile.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Sampled on draft at the brewpub - pours amber / orange with an off-white head. The aroma has sweetish malt with floral hops and is on the fruity side. Medium body with semi-soft carbonation. The flavor starts with lightly toasted malt along with floral and piny hops. the finish has pine, grapefruit, earthy and spicy hops. Very nice, but a bit on the sweet side for my tastes on the style.

Ed’s IPA. Bright gold and a bit hazy. Nose is a bit funky with a nice citrusy hop flavor. Taste of citrus, ginger ale, moderate hops and a nice malt background. Good solid body with a nice finish. Good beer.
