Ithaca Cascazilla

Pours a translucent ruby amber with a medium off white bubbly/creamy off white head that left some slight lacing. Aroma of fruity/citrus hops, lots of toasted and caramel malts Flavor of caramel, hop flavor with a mix of citrus and pine. On the thin side, dry but a nice balance of malts and bitterness. Not overly bitter and more malty that a majory of the american IPA’s.

Bottle thanks to El Jefe, best before May: Pours a transparent dark copper with a frothy, nicely-lacing off-white head. Aroma explodes with fresh grapefruity hops and sweet caramely malt. Body starts slightly sweet and toasty caramely malty with a nice balance of fresh hops and a crisp, flavorful bittersweet grapefruity finish. A nice IPA, although it could be a little thicker.

Bottle. Thanks to TomDecapolis. Deep orange body with a nice size head. Citrusy aroma - grassy. Flavor is sweetened with hops, citrus, and a mild bitterness to it. A little syrupy but decently balanced. Finishes decent.

Bottle. Reddish-orange pour with an oiff-white head. Orange zest, caramel malt and earthy hops made up the aroma. Light malts and bitter-citrus hops came out with the hops creeping out a bit more in the finish. Light body...malty throughout...semi-sweet with a earthy/bitter finish. Not bad.

355 ml bottle - I love monsters, so I was sure I was going to love this beer, which is named after a monster and is MONSTROUSLY hopped. Oh.....my...... Pours clear red/amber with a nice off-white head. Aroma.....wow! HUGE Cascades, fresh fruit, citrus, melon, and a sour note, too - but not like sour beer - more like a sour candy. Flavour is a bit less intense/more standard American IPA, but still good. Mainly hops, some malt - could use more balance, and a bit more body. Very easy drinking. Start is somewhat grassy and there is a very mild bitter finish. This beer’s worth it for the aroma alone.

Pours a copperish color with a cream colored head that thins out quickly. The hops are pretty evident in the smell, as well as the after-taste. Very smooth and easy to drink

bottle- white head, red in color, extremely clear...smells of cascade hops of course, a little bit of caramel malt, but mostly the hops. Felt the light carbonation left a little to be desired, some bitterness in the flavor, definte fruit tastes- apples mostly, but not too much...not a very heavy beer...nice and dependable, a good beer for almost any occassion.

A hoppy red, significant white head on brownish body. Hoppy aroma including C hop. Above average carbonated, very bitter not balanced, thin mouthfeel. Not satisfying finish, although some caramel in there. Tatebuds demolished.
