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.

Spab (1118) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 9, 2009
Bottle at Volo. Pours a amber/copper with good-sized white head, decent retention. Good resiny, hoppy aroma with modest maltiness. Taste is similarly of resiny hops with some fruit. Nice bitter finish. Enjoyable.

nittanytide (125) - Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 9, 2009
Poured hazy, light amber from the bottle. Grassy hops hit the nose first. Unexpected sweetness on the tip of the tongue after first sip, immediately gave way to grapefruity hops. Dry finish. A good tasting experience.

jerc (5444) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 6, 2009
2009-12-04. Crisp golden amber with a nice off white head and lace. 3+ Nice hoppy aroma, pleasantly leafy, modest resin. 7+ Flavour is similar, more resin than leafy hops here, good amount of bitterness throughout threatens astringency but stays enjoyable. 7+ Smooth average plus palate. Rather good. Bottle at Volo, Toronto

fredandboboflo (1570) - East Setauket, New York, USA - DEC 6, 2009
Aroma of grass, citrus, toast, hay. Flavor solidly hoppy with a mild malt background. A nice, unremarkable IPA that I would be happy to drink regularly but surely will not with a plethora of better ones out there.

TipsyMcStager (1065) - Calgary, Alberta, CANADA - DEC 4, 2009
Suprisingly understated brew. Aroma is malty and light on the hops. Pours a cloudy golden-orange, nice foamy head with lacing. Soft in the middle. Finish is dry and hoppy, and somewhat chalky. Light body. So-so.

LilBeerDoctor (2568) - East Setauket, New York, USA - NOV 27, 2009
Bottle. Pours a clear orange with a small white head. Aroma of crackery malt and citrus hops. Flavor of caramel malt, sweet fruits, light citrus. The hop presence is not too dominant, but this is still quite an enjoyable beer. Very drinkable. 7/4/7/4/15 [3.7/5]

chriso (7062) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - NOV 25, 2009
On tap at Deep Ellum, Allston (Boston) MA, October 2009. Thought this might be heavily overshadowed by the Green Flash Imperial IPA that I had immediately before but that was not the case. Classic West Coast IPA character. Big hops with a lot of grapefruit and orange peel. Good bitterness makes this an eminently drinkable IPA. So drinkable I had another couple of pints.

curly (2201) - Seattle (Newcastle), Washington, USA - NOV 16, 2009
UPDATED: DEC 27, 2009 Hazy orange, thick beige head. Aroma of lemon, pine, and grapefruit. Very bitter pine resin up front and a grapefruit finish.
