Oct 26, 2009 Bottle from Kahn’s (S.T. in Indy, FINALLY!) Pours hazy pale orange with fading foamy white head. Nose is moderate citrus hops with a pine background and some faint caramel malt on the sweeter side. Taste is mildly carbonated, mild hop flavor, some citrus tones and slight astringency. Basically, this is what they say it is...pretty simple, but good for what it is. Refreshing to say the least.

Oct 26, 2009 The aroma is papery with citrus, yeast, and sour dough bread. The appearance is hazy gold orange with a large head. The flavor is like the aroma with a bitter, cardboard finish. The palate is smooth but no outstanding. Overall this is just one of those underwhelming beers that does not suffer from quality problems it is just not that outstanding.

Oct 20, 2009 Bottle, 12 fl. oz. Pours a golden beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is hops (english hops). The flavor follows the nose. The palate is bitter and overall this is a good beer.

Oct 15, 2009 Pretty good - this one would be an excellent one to cask condition! Aroma is grassy and floral. Malt backbone is solid, not too sweet like some ST beers can be. Great MW IPA in the tradition of B2H.

Oct 11, 2009 Bottle. I think the description on the bottle says it all - "extra pale ale". Imagine the best pale ale you’ve had, then imagine it a bit hoppier and a bit smoother - that’s Hoppe. Yellow pour with a foamy white head, and exceptional lacing. Smooth and drinkable, but hoppy as well. Not as hoppy as an IPA or anything like that, but a nice hop flavor that you don’t always get with a standard pale ale

Oct 11, 2009 Bottled:
Orange colour, small but thick head. Fruity citrus aroma with notes of honey. Flavour has more fruit and honey. Long piney hop finish.

Sep 30, 2009 The initial pour gives a finger of head with a very clean golden color. The aroma is citrus-like and even a bit of orange peel. The initial flavor is a combination of citrus hops and sweet tropical fruit that balance out the bitterness. The flavor of alcohol is almost non-existent. The finish is rather dry with some hoppy bitterness which leaves a very pleasant taste from this interesting beer.

Sep 29, 2009 Bottle. Hazy golden / orange. Medium head. Fruity pine aroma of hops. Flavour is pineapple, orange and malt with a nicely bitter finish of hops with a caramel aftertaste. Some alcohol sting as well. Interesting, if not great.
