COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This English style IPA is a full-flavored, full-bodied brew that has a big bold malt character and intense aromatics. It’s a well-balanced, golden-colored brew that has a crisp hop finish that doesn’t bite. With its palate cleansing finish, IPA is a perfect for highly spiced dishes with curry, ginger, garlic or cumin. This classic English style IPA is brewed with: 2-row Pale malt and is hopped with Challenger and East Kent Goldings hops

BVery (1972) - Burnsville, Minnesota, USA - JAN 5, 2012
Bottle. Clear light gold pour with a smaller white head. Aroma and taste of caramel malt and grain - taste includes a sharp bitter hop bite but it doesn’t linger terribly long. Decent enough, but not great.

KajII (343) - Macon, North Carolina, USA - JAN 5, 2012
Bottle. The pour was a light clear amber with an average sized (1-2 finger) frothy white head that had really nice retention which produced some excellent sticky lacing. The aroma was moderately heavy of a floral hop, a grain malt and a soapy yeast with notes of caramel and citrus (grapefruit). The taste was lightly bitter with a hint of caramel early on, then a nice hoppy bitterness took hold with a nice fruity citrus taste at the end. The flavor lasted only a short time in which the taste of grapefruit and hops took hold of the taste buds. Mouthfeel was light in body and dry in texture with a medium carbonation. Overall a very nice hoppy brew that goes down nice and easy, leaving one with the nice taste of citrus at the end.

BK7 (223) - Turner, Oregon, USA - DEC 27, 2011
Bottle. Light bitterness throughout with a big malt background. This is what their Pale Ale should taste like. Weak for an IPA.

That1Guy (1490) - Lyons, Colorado, USA - DEC 4, 2011
12 oz bottle. Pours a golden orange with a thin lacing. Light aroma and flavor of sweet bready malts and some hops. Drinkable but plain.

AirForceHops (987) - Epping, New Hampshire, USA - NOV 21, 2011
Bottle from Smiley’s Beverage, Dover, NH. Soapy head with light retention. Aroma was pine, citrus and spruce. Flavor much the same. Medium body. Oily finish. Average IPA. Not bad at all but.... Forgettable.

Warsteiner (11) - Monroe, North Carolina, USA - NOV 19, 2011
Light malt yeasty aroma, not much going on there. Nice clear golden color. Nice citrus flavor you would expect from a Oregon IPA. Nice Challenger hops infusion. Light thin medium carbonation Bitter finish that goes away quickly. Overall a good all day drinking beer, very tasty not a lot of english ale

esjaygee (2496) - Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA - NOV 14, 2011
Clear amber with a creamy beige head. Aroma of bready malt, caramel, floral hops and notes of citrus. Taste is very bready and malty with some citrus and floralness underneath. Not overly hoppy with medium bitterness and a nice change of pace IPA but nothing I’d want that often.

nice balanced IPA, a little bit hoppier than a true english style one but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
