Commercial Description:
No cute name on this one...simply a fairly strong (7%abv) intensely hoppy amber ale...much like our BPA turned up to 11.

Draft @ NH - Clear sparkling amber, creamy off white head. Deep pine and grapefruit aromas warm to notes of fresh weed. Big pine and grapefruit hop punch rounds with hints of melon. Just screams Southern California form start to finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, lasting bitter finish. Great brew...

Gravity Cask. It’s been a few years since I had a Nodding Head beer and I was looking forward to it. Not disappointed, this cask IPA was spot on, delicate, floral, creamy and plenty of hops to get your attention. Nice head, just a nice beer. thanks guys.

Draft at Capone’s. Pours a clear light orange with a creamy medium white head. Aroma of mango, peach, citrus and piney hops. Taste is much like the aroma.

Poured an amber color with a small, white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of pine, floral hops, light toffee, and skunk. Taste of citrus, pine, caramel, grapefruit, light tobacco, dry with some alcohol in the finish.

Draft at Capones. Bright and crisp hoppy aroma. Flavor bites the top of the mouth and finishes dry. Hoppy as hel, you’d never think this is an East Coast IPA, let alone from Philly.
