This was our first stop on our trip to Columbia. Natty Greene’s is a great stop for beer and food. The Colonial IPA was the first tasted. The IPA had a nice head with lacing down the glass. There was citrus on the nose. Great balance for an IPA. The medium body average carbonation.The finish was smooth with a muted bitter bite.

kick ass IPA to say the least, the best beer I had at Natty Greenes in Greensboro. Floral and piney, nice citrusy and bitter aftertaste. Very good IPA
