Commercial Description:
This one's a beauty; a rich and full bodied India Pale Ale with complex malt character blended with cascade and noble hops. The end result is a beer that satisfies the "hop head" out there and won't chase away the newcomer. Drink it. It's good.

Thanks to jjpm for this one. It pours a nice dark coppery ruby color with 1-finger off-white head. Aroma is hops, some fruit, some caramel malt. Tastes briskly hoppy, with a slightly piney, slightly fruity, citrusy, very crisp hop flavor, coupled with a well balanced caramel malt presence. This is another outstanding canned pale ale variant. I’ve had more great canned beers this year than the previous 20. I’d walk down the street at night in Harlem for a case of this.

Pours light amber color with off white head. Lots of stuff floating around. Light floral hop aroma with some bready malts. Stale hop flavor with some maltiness. Medium body with soft carbonation. Not very good. I don’t think I’m going to finish this one.

Pours golden orange with a white head. The aroma is pretty hoppy with both piney and grapefruit smells. The first taste I was hit with bitterness, but that subsides with additional drinks and you get pine, grapefruit and a strong malt backbone. The malt definitely drives this beer, balancing it nicely Medium body and medium carbonation.

A: Pours deep amber orange with a thick orangish brown foamy frothy head that leaves behind thick chunks of lacing. Hell Yeah! S: Nice piney, citrus aroma with a nice biscuit like malt backbone. Nice smelling inviting IPA. T: Nice IPA that is not over the top when it comes to the hops. There is a gentle mild piney hop taste with just enough malt to balance it out nicely. More English than American. M: Medium bodied

12 oz can. Pours a real pretty peach/orange color with a creamy off white cap. The head slowly recedes leaving rings of lace behind. Aroma is citrus hop with a touch of caramel malt. Fairly heavy bodied, chewy, but smooth. Taste is a well balanced mix of citrus hop, caramel malt, with a bit of earthiness. Not a " hit you in the head with hops" type of IPA. Bitter finish.

Thanks to Cletus. Malty and English style IPA. Lots of caramel in there. Nice pour. Not too much aroma. Bitterness. Decent beer.

Thanks to Cletus for this addition of Connecticut to my "list". Pours a beautiful, clear copper with an off-white froth. Aromas of caramel and floral malt. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is lightly roasted caramel with a balance of floral hops. A rather florally mild ale. Very drinkable.
