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.

Sampled from bottle. Pours murky copper with a thin, white, scattered head. Aroma is bold with fresh grapefruit and some floral notes. Flavor is nicely bitter with heavy citrus, caramel candy and a piney hop finish. Full-bodied and wonderfully smooth. many of the Portland locals recommended this IPA - and for good reason. A wonderful beer.

Bottled. Hazy orange golden color, medium off-white head. Aroma of fruit, hop, some bread, orange zest, bit caramel. Not bitter, but more fruity, some caramel, orange. Very soft.

Bottle. Poured hazy medium peach with a short-lived cap of white head. The aroma picked up orange zest and somewhat juicy lighter fruits over a simple caramel base.. sweet overall. The flavor had caramel and orange meat at the core surrounded by some orange bitterness and sharper, boozy floral notes.. finished shorter with rough alcohol and dry orange bitterness. Medium-bodied and sharper on the palate with low carbonation.. had a bit of kick on the finish.. not too well balanced.
