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.

Courtesy gunhaver. Wheaty yellow pour with creamy white head and lace. A beer that is solid but not over the top on hops. Grapefruity but sweet flavor. Mouthfeel was solid. A beer I could get used to drinking. Last beer I remember from the VBTD. A great bunch of guys with more good beer than anyone in Florida. WOW!

Pours copper color with a white head. Nice aroma, piney-citrus. First taste is sweet toasted malt with an earthy bitterness. Big malt, big hops. Nice dry bitter finish. Not as crisp as some. A bit sweeter than most IPA’s. Nice brew, recommended.

Pours a clear copper, with a boastful head of white froth. Lacing is obscene and sexual in its character. Sweet citrusy hops in the nose, and a nice malty end. Citrus, grapefruit, soft maltiness in the mouth. Soft malt mouthfeel, with a bitter end.

Courtesy gunhaver. Pours a fairly clear amber color with a light off white head. Smells of nice hops, some grapefruit citrus, and light malts too. The flavor was pretty crisp and clean. The hops were there, but notover the top, the citrus and malts backed them up rather well. The finish had a crispy hop bitterness to it and nice flavorful aftertaste. Nice IPA.

Green Dragon Pub NYE 07 with Bikesandbeer and his gf Jessi. Draft. @ Green Dragon Pub in Portland Oregon. At first I had trouble figuring out what this was but Brewdad helped with that. Pours orange with a hafl finger off white head. Nose is hoppy with a sweet malty edge. Taste is hoppy sweet, with a bit of a barleywine quality to it.

dirty dusty aroma like a meadow after a downpour. hazy gold, moving to copper on the edges. fuggles really come through with a pronounced dusty edge on the tongue. plenty of flavor, not bitter
