3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
12 oz. bottle. Golden with amber hues. Medium white head that dissipates quickly. Minimal lacing. Some light grassy notes with pine, maybe some citrus. Taste is much of the same. Grassy, piney and citrus hops with a decent malt character. Some caramel and toffee with just a hint of chocolate. This is pretty well done. A bit over carbed leads to a somewhat tingly mouthfeel that detracts from the taste. There’s a good dose of bitter in there which lingers through the end into the after, combining wit ha dry finish to make an all around decent beer. Not top tier, but definitely a drinkable, and somewhat sessionable IPA. Cheers, Flying Fish!
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
This is just a bit too sweet for an IPA. Cloudy and golden with a moderate head and very light on the palate. But just a tad to sweet that overwhelms the hoppiness.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Poured a slightly hazy amber-orange color with a large off-white head. Aroma has some citrus with grains. Taste is a bit watery with lots of hay and grain flavors. Some hops with citrus, but not as much as in the aroma. Overall it’s ok, but it’s a little too smooth for an IPA.
2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
12 ounce from mixed six pack at Foodery. Orange body. Foamy pour. Not much flavor, however. IPA? Who knows how fresh the bottle is, but not tasty.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Hazy orange color with a modest head, ok retention and nice lace. Subtle grassy hops aroma with a touch of pineapple and grapefruit. Slight hops bitterness balanced with bready malt sweetness. Light to medium body, lots of carbonation, a bit harsh on the tongue, and a crisp finish. A good example of the difference between an East Coast IPA and a West Coast IPA. Perhaps my tongue is numb.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pours clear amber with a medium off-white head that dissipates quickly with some lacing. Aroma is of grapefruit, but fades rapidly after opening. Taste is mild, with a mix of citrus and floral hops and some sweet caramel malt backing. Finish is moderately bitter and clean. Surprisingly light for its type, and a little bland for my personal preference.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at the Khyber. Hazy dark honey pour. Citrus pith bitterness throughout but a honey sweeness lingers after. Nice palate. Decent.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap, Dinosaur BBQ, Newark NJ. Clean lines. Pours golden with a reddish hue; nice head retention. Limited hop aroma. Attack is smooth, almost too smooth for a standard IPA, with a balanced middle and relatively clean finish with just a bit of lingering hops. Solid offering, simple IPA.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a amber with a small white head. Aroma is hoppy, floral, with a dash of pine. Medium on the palate with average carbonation. Flavor is bittersweet with a light bitter finish.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
this cloudy honey colored IPA was much sweeter, fruity and malty, bitter at the finish with strongg iron taste. Not much head or lacing
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft. Pours yellow with minimal head, no lacing, and little carbonation. The atoms is minimal with a little bread. The taste is mild bitter. This is more apa than ipa.
