COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
...created to aid in deciphering the puzzles along life’s road, and interpreting signs in the voyages of the spirit. Brewed in homage to the wisdom of visionaries everywhere who blaze paths into uncharted territories. Our take on an India Pale Ale (IPA.) A deep golden amber ale with a rich up-front malty nose finishing with a big, hoppy bite. Dry-hopped to finish with a big fresh (Cascade) hop flavor. Fermented with our 150 year old strain of top-fermenting yeast.

Pours a three finger off-white head that fades very slowly, leaving a good lace. Clear amber color. Light-medium carbonation and light bodied. Grapefruit hop nose and flavor is same - grapefruit hops with hints of caramel, watery. Lingering bitter aftertaste. $1.85 for a 12oz bottle from Colonial Spirits Acton, Ma.

Pours a copper color with a tiny white head. Aroma of fresh hops, dried fruits, bread. A nice refreshing ipa that is sessionable. Does not wow but a respectable offering from Magic Hat.

JStax (1671) - Devola/Marietta, Ohio, USA - MAY 11, 2013
12 ounce bottle. Pours a darker copper with a soapy white head of foam. The aroma is sweet and a fruity hop profile coming through. Lightly bitter and mostly sweet.

Simple but great malt character compared to the big hop flavor. The color suggests some carmalt/Crystal. Very good citrus-y hop varietals. The beer overall though leaves me wanting more.

Not a bad IPA! Tasty and smooth perfect for a hot summer day. More aromatic hops then bittering hops it seems.

hombrepalo (1623) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAR 11, 2013
Brewhaha. Sweet, hoppy, citrus aroma. Nice hops flavor with hints of grass and grapefruit but minimal malt. Finishes bitter; not very complex but still quite enjoyable.

Just not doing it for me. Maybe palate is ruined. Not worth it. Glad I didn't buy it. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

35,5 cl bottle. clear amber beer with a small offwhite head. Fruity, hoppy and a bit malty aroma. Hoppy and a bit strange flavour.

Not my favorite IPA. Pretty heavy for the style and not a very bitter bite. Didn?t hate it though.
