Kevbo99 (149), Dunmore, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 11, 2002 Easy drinking and very hoppy. One of my favorite IPA’s
lithy (118), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Aug 18, 2008 On draft, clear golden yellow with not much of a white head when I got the glass. Aroma was light and sweet with hints of fruity hops. Light bodied with a good crisp bitterness. Not strong in any way but balanced and sessionable. yesyouam (346), Fairport, New York, USA Aug 17, 2008 Sampled at the Flour City Brewers’ Fest 2008. Harpoon IPA is a sparkling, light golden ale with a thick, fluffy, white head. The head retention is excellent. The aroma is muted by the head. I’m picking up a slight note of banana, which is odd. It certainly smells fruity. It is medium light bodied, pretty smooth, a little metallic, and the finish is dry. It has OK bitterness and a touch of sweetness. There is a grassy flavor here. It’s pretty drinkable. bwbeall812 (26), Brentwood, Tennessee, USA Aug 15, 2008 Bottle. Floral earthy nose with light amber appearance. Very mild, crisp IPA with slight bitterness. A satisfying mildly hoppy brew. NomDeBeer (129), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Aug 14, 2008 Grassy, earthy hop flavors and aromas instead of citrus. Very drinkable but mild. As a pale ale this would be pretty good, but as an IPA it just doesn’t have enough hops to satisfy. Russo (476), Campinas, Brazil Aug 13, 2008 On Tap@hill tavern . Dark gold color a thin foam but persistent. Aroma is malty and notes of roasted malt. Flavor is refreshing and hoppy, mouthfeel is bitter.
