In keeping with tradition, our India Pale Ale has a distinctive – some might even say aggressive – hop flavor.

Bottle. Clear golden with a fizzy white head. Faint hoppy aroma. Nice crisp cereal grain and citrus bread taste with a slightly astringent finish.

Bleh. IPA only in name. Golden hue with a think white foam. Minimal hop in the nose, even less in the flavor. Bready and slightly bitter.

Gold with thick foamy head. Aroma not as hoppy as the typical IPA. Taste - Starts malty--caramel & biscuit, and fades to grassy hops. Long bitter finish. I don’t love the hop flavor - but it’s got a pretty good malty palate. This is just alright for me.

a really poor ipa, that is unexciting and bland as a beer in general and even more for style. cant believe how much better the horizon red is ....

Hazy reddish orange with creamy laye/ring of foam.Some lacing. Pretty good aroma lightly of pine,herbal,floral,sweet carmel. Pretty nice tasteing with a good hop/malt balance,but hop flavorful of spice/pine mild fruit maybe along with the bittering. Sort of bready. Good carmel/toasted malt backbone the kind i like in ipa’s.

Copper in color. Toasty caramel malt and skunky noble pine hops. Mostly refined toasted malt with generic pine hop bitterness. Lightly dry and hoppy finish with residual toast/biscuit. Ultraclean and easy to drink, but plain.

Definitely one of the most enjoyable IPAs I have yet to taste! Exceptional blend of grapefruit, pine and caramel. I was even getting ’warm butter’ in the background just before the finish. There was even just a remnant flavor of wild honeycomb in there too. Very substantial on the palate and extremely refreshing. Leaves you with a clean finish full of a robust, bitter ’twang’ that has this brew pairing up with some smoked mussels and oysters very well!
