COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our true English style IPA. Bready English Malt gives this beer a firm backbone to hang truckloads of East Kent Golding Hops on. Available on draft at the brewery and select “Beer Geek Bars” Feb. March April (if it lasts that long).

on draft, good amber color with decent big fluffy head, nose is very aromatic hop. flavor is overpowering hops, slightly unbalanced, odd finish. Nice beer but needs some work

whaleman (2176) - North Wales, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 2, 2006
Draught at the Blue Dog in Chalfont. Clear golden-copper body with a sudsy white head. Aroma and flavor of fruit, chalky malts, weak black tea, and wood stems. Medium bitterness and some undesired sweet residual malt notes. Mild, but noticeable acidity. A remedial East Coast IPA.

Draft at the Grey Lodge in Philly. Nice IPA. Along the bitter style. Godd have been a little more balanced.

Lubiere (6988) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 13, 2006
Dark golden ale with a thin white head. Strong diacetyl aroma, overpowers the hops. In mouth, caramelly hops with rather flat character, lingering with some nutty notes and a oily mouthfeel. Bizarre Ipa. On tap at the CNY Brewfest 2006.

An average English style IPA. Nice blend of hops, just no epiphanies here. Sampled with a back of Wild Turkey Rye Whiskey.

GoldenSpunky (120) - Rochester, New York, USA - SEP 24, 2004
Very smooth IPA with a daker golden brown color. The aroma smells alittle skunky at first but then blends nicely into the flavor of the beer the more you drink. This is my first beer from flying bison brewery and I am impressed. I think IPA’s are one of the most challenging to brew and since its brewed in my hometown, Im excited to try other beers from flying bison.

hershiser2 (1006) - Charlottesville, Virginia, USA - APR 21, 2004
Floral and citrus aroma, while being deep amber with a medium head. Smells delicious, and tastes like a cross between an English and American IPA.

IPFreely (1471) - Sanborn, New York, USA - FEB 4, 2004
Medium amber color, almost a light brown, cream color head. Bigger floral hop aroma, nice malt backbone. Flavor was little buttery, good dose of hops. Medium body, bitter finish. Nice English style IPA.

rudolf (2245) - Buffalo, New York, USA - FEB 2, 2004
grassy, floral aroma with a hint of lemon. Clean appearance, thin whitish head. Nice earthy flavor, but nowhere near the hop level I was expecting.
