Great Lakes Commodore Perry IPA

12 oz. bottle. Pours clear golden amber. Good carbonation with an ok sized white head. This is a pretty solid IPA! I’ve had much worse. Another good beer from GLB!

Fruity nose with some grass. Crystal clear golden amber. Grassy hops interplay with some melons and lemons. Slight burn at the swalow. I say, pretty darn good!

Pours a nice orange amber with a good sized head. Solid hop aroma, good bitterness. Solid IPA.

A great tasting brew shared on several occasions with BrotherBrando. Pours a hazey lazy orange colour, vibrant and deep with a full white floraly hopped head. Aroma is very pleasent, straight to the flow- up in your nose enticing you with a mixture of tropical fruit and fresh hops plopping off the vine. Taste is full on the palate, full of astringent hop character, soft pine and grapefruit. Thanks pal :)

Nice and hoppy. Not the most unique brew. It tends to blend into the crowd of great American IPAs. Still, it’s tasty with a great hopbite that queefs bitterness round the nether-regions of the tongue. Good brew to be sure, though I enjoyed the Burning River a tad bit more. Forsurely worthy of a tryington. Jah.

Poured from bottle 8/2008. Orange/amber, thin white head. Hops in aroma, but not as dominant as I would have thought. Not to worry - flavor is loaded with hops. Excellent blend with spice and floral notes galore. Malt gives a creamy feel. Nice finish. Another impressive IPA made in the USA.

A sample on tap at the brewery. It pours a nice golden color and the head laces the glass nicely. This beer is nicely hoppy and the taste lingers. The flavor is balanced well and this is one of the better IPAs I’ve had.

On tap in a sampler at GLB in Cleveland. A darker golden than the Burning River, a bit more medicine-y nose and stronger hops as well. White head clings thickly to the glass.
