Commercial Description:
Our IPA isn’t only about bitterness, tons of hop flavor(progress and horizon) and aroma cling to a malty brew. Try paired with your favorite cheese, or just as a summer ending thirst quencher. 60 IBU's

pours a hazy brown/copper. nutty, malty aroma. Taste follows well, with a nice malt backbone. Hop finish at end could be stronger, but as this is modeled after the english version, it goes with the style. Overall nice.

sampled on tap at the brewery. clear golden in color with a large head. Aroma is floral hops and some trace notes of caramel. Taste is the same, rather thin on the palate, nothing too exciting here.

Cold 12oz bottle: Pours a hazy medium orange color with a small off white head which leave a layer of bubbles in the center, some lacing and a ring of bubbles around the edges. Malts, pine and notes of caramel and flowers. Medium bodied and well carbonated. Ending is of aromatic hops.
