Commercial Description:
Our version of the IPA beer style possesses a deep golden hue, rich malty flavor, a bold, complex, and enduring hop finish and is extremely full bodied. We dry hop this brew and use a combination of Fuggles and Chinook hop varieties resulting in an extremely enticing floral and spicy aroma as well as hop character. Great Western Two Row Pale Malt, De Wolf-Cosyns' Caravienne and Munich Malts are combined to achieve an initial specific gravity approaching 1.065.

Poured to a golden-yellow-orange with medium thick white head that lingered thru mid-glass and left okay lacing. Aroma was the anticipated citrusy grapefruit hops, although milder than I was expecting, especially from Moylan. Mouthfeel was medium boided and slightly tangy, and the flavor picked up the citrus hops as well. This all led to a long smooth finish. While a darn good beer, it was not quite along the same line as other Moylan’s I’ve had.

Pours a lightly hazed light amber topped by medium white head. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit, pine and light caramel. Flavor is medium sweet, sharp grapefruit, pine, light pineapple and peach. Medium dry finish. Medium body, chewy texture.

Pours a nice clear dark orange color with a nice amount of foamy white head. Aroma is very much of sugared grapefruit which i absolutely love - very strong and nice. Flavor is very sweet and malty - lots of caramel flavors with nice floral citric hop character but not overpowering. Great balance and nice medium mouthfeel. This is a great IPA.

Not being an IPA fan my rating is somewhat biased. I guess it’s a good beer for its style. lots of hops and lots of carbonation. The flavor is very citric. Ever once in a while I try an IPA to see if my taste has changed--It hasn’t

Nice IPA. Balanced malt and hops but finishes with a good floral hop taste and arome. Full bodied in the mouth.

Found this one bottled at Lundeen’s in St. Charles, Illinois. Hazy dark orange pour with a thick and foamy light tan head, brassy nose of floral hops, clover honey and a hint of chocolate malt. Interesting taste: the bitterness of rosy hops, orange rind, gin and very strong tea. Finishes strong and bitter. I’d call it a hop bomb but it really wasn’t all that hoppy, there’s a lot more going on with this one.
