12 oz. bottle- Pours clear golden with a pillow on top, aroma is of citrus and hops. The flavor is mellow, drinkable, and damn right enjoyable, you dirty bastard. Sorry, i apologize, the arrogant bastard in me got out, you stupid jackasses.

Yellow colored with cloudy appearance. Medium sized white head. Rich aroma with nice pine and grass, some flowers and grape also come up. Medium bodied. Flavor is also strongly piny with lemon also dominating, nice fruits with some pineapple also here. Aftertaste lasts with bitter hops.

Foamy white head over a cloudy orange beer. Brilliant hop bouquet. Cascade citrus, spicyness, grapefruit some floral notes as well as earthiness. Intense bitter bite, just enough malt to balance. Grapefruit starts to come through. Medium to light body. This is the IPA pushed as far as it can go without having to up the malt/body. Very, very good.

Medium golden/ochre murky pour with a long lasting creamy beige head. Aroma is very hoppy, grapefruit and flowers, but also caramel malt, prune, dates and alcohol. Flavor matches the aroma. It starts off lightly sweet and moderately bitter, but quickly becomes bitter in a heavy way - lasting and lasting with a an alcoholic sting in there as well. Medium to full bodied, syrupy with soft carbonation. A delight even though it was served too cold.

(Bottled) Poured orange and hazy. Head was medium sized and white. The aroma was strongly hoppy and also fruity. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The dominant component in the taste was hop flavour. In addtion to that there were malts, fruitiness, pine and bitternes. Hoppiness continued in the long lasting aftertaste. Really good IPA. I had this later from tap but I didn’t rerate it.

On tap at The Barley Oak, Mandeville La. Light amber color with a medium sized but persistent head. Floral aroma. A great one for the hop heads (like me). Very hoppy, bitter, yet clean and crisp. Hoppy finish.
