Commercial Description:
Indian Pale Ales are the hoppiest style of beer, and this one won't disappoint. We use generous amounts of Cascade and Mt. Hood hops, with a final dry hopping in the serving vessel that gives this beer its signature bitterness.

A hazy blonde ale with a thin lacing white head. The aroma is pleasant and citrusy. In mouth, a classy IPA lacking malt, very bitter. Medium bodied. On tap at brewpub, August 2007.

Draft @ Silver Peak. Pours a slightly hazy orange color; off-white head with fine-bubbled lacing. Slightly reserved aroma of mild orange and citrus bitterness. Medium mouthfeel: chewy orange and citrus / earthy bitterness (definitely a mixed hop character), candy sugar, and a slight touch of alcohol present; reserved hop character overall; mildest astringency. Medium finish: bitter citrus and earthiness, and the standard toastiness seen in the finish of most of these lighter Silver Peak beers; nicely dry.

On tap at Silver Peak Reno, NV Pours out a amber topped with a cream head. A nice hop aroma and some caramel as well. A little bitter on the end.

On tap @ Silver Peak poured a cloudy gold with a small lingering white head. Aromas of earthiness, carmel and a hint of pine. Palate was light to medium bodied smooth and dry. Flavors of earthiness, carmel and pine with a dry bitter finish.

A nice aroma, fairly hoppy. A very cloudy almost wheat-beer appearance. Flavor has an immediate crispy zestiness that rises through the nose. A wonderfully bitter finish. Maybe the best I tried.
