Commercial Description:
American and English hops give our IPA a citrus like hop flavor and aroma. Formerly known as the Old Princeton Landing IPA.

One of the best HMB beers. I enjoyed it, athough thought it was somewhat thin an light bodied. Still had good hop characeristics

One of the best at HMB. Has a slight reddish hued color for an IPA with a strong hoppy taste. There are hints of citrus that gives this beer a unique flavor that is really easy on the palate.

Very pale for an IPA, fairly thin head. A little on the lightish side in flavor, but a good hop profile. Nothing too special here, but it’s a decent IPA.

Light red in color with a white head. Good lacing, but found the flavor lacking in an IPA of others that I have had. I will have to admit that this was probably my least favorite of the beers on tap there.

Draft. Amber beer with a whitish head. Some grapefruit and pine aroma. Grapefruit flavor with some pine and malt backing. Medium bodied. Lighter bitterness than many IPAs.
