COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our IPA recalls a time when ales shipped from England to India were highly hopped to preserve their distinct taste during the long journey. The result, quite simply a hop lover’s dream. And this classic ale adds a fruity aroma, set off by a dry malt middle, to ensure that the long hop finish is one you’ll remember.

The best of the geese, for me, so far. I've been fond of the Goose Island beers, and the hops in this one will please.

Hoppy and bit bitter in line with most of the Goose Island family. Solid IPA with flavor to back it up.

Nice IPA, good balance of hops and taste on tongue is great. Plan to purchase again. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

355 ml fra Vinmonopolet. Fyldig ravfarve med hvitt godt skum. Aroma av tropiske frukter. Veldig fruktig smak med med middels bitterhet og litt sødme. God ettersmak. (Munkegata, 08.05.13)

Perfect balance of bittering and late boil aromatic hops. Fruity taste and modestly carbonation. A great pale ale.

Perfectly pleasant IPA, but nothing exceptional. I think that I prefer Sierra Nevada’s offering. Still perfectly enjoyable though.

Big, hoppy and flavoursome. A bit too tart and ’sticky’ perhaps but very pleasant, especially for such a widely available IPA.

Old leather & creepy uncle cologne on the nose. Sharp bite on the tongue. Brisk taste. A tad coppery. Nice cold. Yes.
