Commercial Description:
Traditionally made strong & highly hopped so it would keep on its long journey, from England to India during British rule. Ours is a wonderfully bitter beer with a spicy aroma, some fruity characteristics and a lingering hop finish. A great aperitif!

On tap at the brewery. Great fruity resinous hop aroma. Grapefruit and orange rind. Spicy and floral, sweet caramel malts. Orange amber clear with foamy lacing off-white head. Medium-heavy watery body with medium carbonation. Grassy fresh hops and bitter from the start, with decent caramel sweetness and graininess. Bitter, albeit smooth, all the way from start to finish. Sharp grapefruit rind and ozone, grassy. Great puckering chalky bitter after.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear orange with a thick white head. Aroma of lots of pine, citrus, and grapefruit. Flavor is pine initial with a nice malty finish. Hops are crisp and fresh. Very nice. 8/4/8/4/15 (3.9/5)

Growler from treyrab, thanks Trtey. Dark orange/gold color. This had a nice citrusy hop aroma, grapefruit maybe. Very smooth hop flavor, more grapefruit, but with no acidity. Quite a nice IPA, good job Selins Grove and thanks again Trey.

On tap at the Selin’s Grove brew pub. nicely balanced IPA. Some really good hop notes in the aroma with a good malt kick flavor addition. A twinge bitter on the backend, but not bad.

Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a bright orange-amber color with a medium sized soapy white head. The aroma was strong fruity hops but lacking a bit in complexity. The flavor was strong bitter grapefruit and pine with sweet yet bitter malts underneath. The finish was insanely long log with tart and bitter grapefruit. Good.

Hazy light amber with a thick head. Bright hop aroma with hints of wood, nice citrus. Smells awesome. Dry, pithy, herbal with just a hint of almost fruity sweetness. Really nice example.

Draught sample at Jupiter fest. Warm dark golden amber, hazy with tight off-white head. Bright hoppy aroma that has a fresh grain background too. Fruity aroma with tropical fruit, orange, citrus, and juicy flavors. Woody and piney too. Nice stuff with sure session potential.
