COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Ken Hermann has taken our exploration of – and adoration for – the IPA style in a completely new direction. With notes of orange peel and coriander, the soft mouthfeel reminiscent of a Belgian wit, and the hop additions of Simcoe, Citra, and Cascade, he strikes a delicate balance between two disparate styles while showcasing the characteristics of both. It’s a refreshing take on a new style, and we hope you enjoy it! Cheers.

FROTHINGSLOSH (3977) - GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 5, 2013
Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy bright yellow color with a huge fluffy yellow-white head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was strong citra hops, lemon, orange, faint tropical fruits and pepper. The flavor was bitter and tangy lemon, orange and grapefruit with a dryish grainy undertone. Long bitter citric finish. Medium body.The aroma promised much that the rest of the beer failed to deliver on. Ok.

Pours a cloudy dark golden wheat color. Aroma of hops, citrus, oranges and coriander. Pleasant and balanced flavor of the same. I’ve had some white IPAs and this one is quite well balanced.

womencantsail (6883) - Garbage Grove, California, USA - MAR 3, 2013
Hazy light orange pour with a white head. Nice citrus aromas of tangerine, orange, and grapefruit. Some pine hops, bready malt sweetness, a bit of wheat, and light lemon zest. The flavor is mildly sweet with some bread notes and a good citrus character. Mild pine bitterness, grapefruit, orange, and tangerine hops. Floral hop notes and a hint of yeast.

trumble117 (6) - Morgantown, West Virginia, USA - FEB 3, 2013 does not count
I was pleasantly surprised. Not terribly complex but I can appreciate well-executed simplicity. Light on the palate with apparent citrus and a slightly sweet aroma. Nice, clean finish.

Bottle pour. Can’t say I was expecting much, but this beer exceeded expectations. I’m not much of a wheat beer guy but this one had enough hops to balance nicely. Light like a wheat but with the alc and citrus kick of an ipa. Ill have it again. Damn I’m lovin this ipa only 12 pack from harpoon. Keep it up.

12oz into a stemmed ommengang belgain super glass. This is one of the better white ipas out there. Taste is excellent with the hops blasting at full force, the yeast melliowing it all out in the back, the belgian style bring the sweetness and tart like character. color is a wonderful hazy orange gold banana. Taste is juciy fruit, hops, orange, and pine. this one keeps bringing you back for more, and isnt that whats is all about?
