Have tried at the pub and in bottles. It’s a good IPA, by no means an outstanding example of the style but all the Spinnaker’s beers are good and reliable.

Light blonde, with decent head retention. Decent bitter hop aroma, with alcohol well-masked it flavor. Raw-hop bitterness. Quite strong and enjoyable for a Britt IPA.

3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Nate (3026) - Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 26, 2007
Draught sample from brewpub. Light hoppy honey aroma, that house character that most have seemed to have, with very mild bitterness. Golden clear with foamy lacing head. Medium body with light carbonation. Nice medium sweet character, grainy with light fresh hops. Medium bitter finish with mild bitter after. A decent IPA.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Enniskillen (2008) - Salinas, California, USA - JUL 7, 2007
Color is gold with a white head. Aroma is light honey, pale malts. Taste is very light, pale malts, nothing really sticks out in this brew, light hoppiness. Drinkable, but not great by any means.
2.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 mgermani (932) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - JUL 4, 2007
Nearly no smell - if anything, faint smell of onions. Weird! Clear yellow with nearly no head. Aha! Hops! They bloom in the aftertaste, sharp and bitter. Not bad. Slightly overcarbonated, light creamy body otherwise. Not bad, again, a bit thin and it needs more kick at the beginning, perhaps more bittering hops?
