Aroma of citrusy hops and some caramel hops. The flavor is the same, really standard for an IPA. Average texture. A good, hoppy IPA.

From bottle. I like the hazy orange colour, enticing! Floral aroma with a hoppy tickle. Bold bitter flavour with some lip smacking citrus and fresh grassy flavours mixed in for good measure. A solid IPA.

From a bottle into a tulip-style glass. Solid hoppy, earthy aroma. Flavor has a nice hop punch and is my kind of IPA. Hops are floral, earthy, pine. Nice dry finish.

This is exactly what I look for in beer. I can’t even explain it. Monkey Fist somehow read my mind and made the perfect beer to fit it!

From a bottle at a bar. Strong, aggressive taste of hops. Would be better if a bit softer.

Bottle:   Fiery amber, small to moderate white frothy head, decent lacing.   Semi-sweet pithy nose.   Similar tongue, citrus peel and pith.   Seems a bit astringent in that the acidity seems high.   Super
citrus peel is how I would describe it.   Mild sweetness, but not enough.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate.   Tiz okay, but its a little rough around the edges.

Bottle at home. Amber pour. The aroma is orange, pine, floral, strawberry. Full bodied, the flavor is pine, caramel, orange, sweet dough. Long and bitter finish.

Draft at Sea Dog Brewing in Orlando. Amber/copper with a thick white head. This is bitter and hoppy with a strong pine character with a little bit of grapefruit joining in. The body is medium-to full, oily, with some sticky malt. The finish is dry and a bit grainy. This is one of the better beers I’ve had from Shipyard/Sea Dog.

Bold ipa with a deep copper color. Foam light but thick. Strong hop, but has full body and flavor. Was great with spicy Cajon pasta
