On tap at Shoreline in my mug. Always a favorite of mine, the Cluster Phuch is an awesome IPA. Fresh hops permeate the aroma. Nice, orangeish brown in color, little head. Rock and roll flavor, bitterness coats the mouth with a dry finish.

Aug 4, 2008 A good version of a traditional English IPA...bread dough, biscuity malts, caramel, and underneath all of that is a pretty decent hit of English style herbal/earthy hoppiness.

May 18, 2008 On tap at Shoreline Brewery and served in a shaker. This IPA poured a golden amber with a one-finger thick head of off-white foam that lingered for a bit. Spotty lacing covered the sides of the entire glass. The aroma of the beer was made up of mild orange, grapefruit, and bread. The flavor was much the same. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with moderate carbonation. A decent IPA.

May 6, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. The body was medium gold with an off white head. The aroma was grapefruit and almonds. There was also some dandelions. The taste was fairly bitter with some almond shells. There was also some bread crust that was countered by a woody finish. Excellent.

Apr 26, 2008 Had this one draught at the brewpub in Michigan City, Indiana. Clear reddish pour with a nice foamy head, a light flowery nose with a taste of watermelon, roses, a mix of esters in the taste. Had a offputting finish that was difficult to figure out and not very good. Leaper is better.
