Commercial Description:
Everything great that was ever built required a long hammer. A trusty tool used by ordinary ordinary men to make extraordinary things. Transcontinental train tracks. Impossible pipelines. Soaring skyscraper. Long Hammer IPA puts this bold spirit in a bottle. And like its namesake, it's a beer built to stand the test of time.

had this on tap at the local tavern. Too thin in body to be a really good IPA. Had that hops bite that you need but just too watery. Lacing was fine. The aroma was there but just not a chewy as I like.

Poured with a surprisingly nice head, but not that great of an aroma. It seems like fake citrus if that makes sense. taste is pretty smooth. Floral hops, grassy, and citrus. Not bad.

In a glass poured from a bottle. Decent session beer. Slightly nutty aroma, medium amount of carbonation. I enjoyed it.

I really like this beer. It has a definitive taste, unlike many beers that I have sampled. Definite floral tones. Pours orange with a persistent white and foamy head.

Lightly hazy golden yellow-orange, lumpy sticky white foam. Fruity wet hoppy aroma, sappy. Taste is sweet, fruity, some light toast and pine sap, grapefruity hops. Lightly bitter.

Pours slightly hazy straw color with contrasting white head. Nose is citrus, focused toward lemon. Palate is rather timid in terms of hop presence, very citrus-acidic but not the same amount of accompanying citrus flavor with the acidity. Some grapefruit. Has a macro-lager like characteristic that is unwelcome. Light bodied. Watery.

This would make an excellent starter IPA for the introduction to bitterness. Nice orange color. A nice medium hit of hop hits you then it mellows out nicely.
