Commercial Description:
Pale copper in color, but big in body and flavor with a heady hop character. The IPA uses spring water and snow melt from high in the Eagle Cap Wilderness. Terminal Gravity used over 50% Marris Otter pale ale malt imported from the British Isles for a traditional British flavor. It adds several other malts from the Northwest and Europe. TG IPA has over 2 pounds of hops per barrel, finishing with British Fuggles for that classic aroma.

7/28/09 on draft at Uber, Seattle. Aroma is extremely citrusy, sweet from malt blends. Appearance is hazy tan/gold with a well maintained white head and good lacing. Flavor is highly citrus with moderate malt, near perfect balance and moderate bittering. Mouthfeel is medium-full bodied with medium bittering and a slightly astringent finish. Overall, not a ’wow’ IPA in terms of strength, but you can taste the care taken and quality of the brew throughout.

12 oz bottle pours a cloudy burnt orange color with some off white head into a tulip. Dark as hell for an IPA. Floral aroma of hops, caramel malts, honey. Soft hops upfront; more subdued with caramel malts, lemon, honey, tea. Finishes bolder with stronger, resiny hops and a near burnt sugar quality. Frothy mouthfeel, quite soft on the palate really. Medium bodied with an appropriate mid line live of carbonation. A well balanced, sweet IPA. Refreshing, drinkable, and more palatable than many of its brethren in my opinion.

Pours a nice copper color with a tan head. Aroma is caramel, musty, crystal malt, and citrus earthy spicy hops. Flavor is toast, caramel, crystal malt, lemon, and a bitter spicy earthy finish.

Pretty good IPA - nice and dry on the finish, and lots of leafy, grassy notes in the nose. Not the most bitter tongue crusher - which is good. Pours an amber cloudy.

A: Very cloudy yellow orange color with a huge rocky head. Kind of reminds me of a hefe. The head which looks like ocean foam really hangs around and leaves behind layer after layer of lacing. What a beautiful IPA. S: Nice hop aroma. Floral hops with a touch of pine. I love it. T: Nice IPA. Starts off with a hint of malt and just the right amount of hops. I am normally a hop head and the more the merrier, but this brew while on the moderate side when it comes to hops has a perfect balance. There is malt, floral hops, and a deep resinous pine character. M: Medium bodied and easy drinking.

Bottle. Great beer. Poured an amber orange color with a decent two finger white head. Left lacing on the side of the glass as it wenta along. Aroma was pine, hops, and citrus. Flavor exploded on the palate. Very great beer and company. Would drink again.
