COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
IPA stands for India Pale Ale and ours is an American version of the classic style. IPA’s namesake lies in its colonial roots. British soldiers on their way to India dark a lot of beer, but found it would go stale on the long voyages. Meanwhile, brewers knew that by adding more hops, the beer would stay fresh. Voila! A new style was born and it is one we are proud to brew. Southern Tier IPA is a triple-hopped on its journey to your glass for a fully aromatic experience.

DSG (2636) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - JAN 26, 2012
Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks zvikar. DOB 9/23/11. Clear deep golden. Aroma of somewhat stale citric hops and a bit of malt. Flavor is a bit sweetish with a bitter finish with some slightly old hops. Medium-bodied.

Tequilakongen (264) - Oslo, NORWAY - JAN 20, 2012
Orange or amber in colour, and a fine white head. I’m only starting to get used to these kind of IPAs out of the USofA. Aroma of this one is in a strange way vegetable-like, if you ask me, but it actually stings a bit in the nose. It also reminds me of newly cut grass. Taste is full and bitter all the way through, but there’s a sweet fruity base there as well. (Bottle, 7.3 abv.)

BunnyHops (26) - Newark, Illinois, USA - JAN 17, 2012
Pours a reddish honey with a smooth head. Thicker and slightly more sour than other IPAs Im used to. Floral and earthy but with a sour yeast aftertaste.

Not bad, but a little too sweet and not hoppy enough for my IPA taste. This would be an easy drinking session IPA.

Bouteille 341 ml. 7%. Couleur ambrée pâle, mousse blanche-beige crémeuse. Arôme de houblon frais, pamplemousse. En bouche, douce, herbes, malt et pamplemousse. Finale un peu amère...se boit tout seul...excellente.

kidmartinek (1757) - austin, Texas, USA - JAN 2, 2012
More copper color in this one. Light orangish color. Lacking in aroma. Holds a respectable white film. I can’t smell this beer if I snort it. The taste is reminiscent of academia, you know, college textbooks and smarts. lol. Too thick on the palate. Forgettable finish. Fizzy.

Johnsense (200) - - JAN 1, 2012
Clear amber pour, 2 fingers of head. Lots of lacing. Hoppy aroma - Grapefruit, Pint. A bit one dimensional - loads of citrus fruit and pine, very small bit of caramel malt. medium Bodied, fairly sweet. I still drink it when I want a hop fix but other IPA’s have surpassed this one.
