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.

Beer is an amber color that poured with a small head that faded fast. Aroma is full of hops that dominate with a little bit of malt coming through. Very good hop flavor and bitterness with some malt in the finish. Beer also finishes with a dry bitterness in the end. A very good easy drinking IPA not as full bodied as some other IPA’s I like but that is because they used less malt. The nice thing is I can drink several of these in a session versus some of the stronger IPA’s that are 7% and stronger in alcohol. A good "session IPA".

Very hoppy beer, of course as are most IPAs...not being a fan of most IPAs, this was decent for the genre.

Copper pour decent head that leaves a nice lace behind. Piney aroma. Malty sweet up front with a cascade hop finish. Good, but a far cry from some others I’ve had

Had this one a while ago. It was a solid, but unspectacular beer. Pretty hoppy.

Pours a light copper colour with a medium sized white head. Floral, and slightly piney- aroma is pleasently hopped. Initial taste of sweet malts which quickly pans out into grapefruit and tangerine. Finishes semi dry.

This is a nice all around beer. If not my favorite certainly one of my favorite from Magic Hat. Copper color topped with a medium white head that leaves a nice amount of lacing on the glass. Maintains a nice head throughout. A very smooth fruity taste with a hops flavor as well. Very slight bitter, hoppy finish. A great balance to this beer!
