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.

A hazy orange beer with a small off-white head. The aroma is of hops and caramel. The flavor is dry and very hoppy with notes of grass and alfa-acid. The end is lovely bitter.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Hazy, amber golden with a creamy, off-white head. Fat, grapefruitish citrus aroma. Medium body with light caramel notes and then again this distinct citrus hoppiness in the finish. Lovely. Courtesy of JCapriotti. 151206

Bottled. Amber colour with a slight haze. Rich lychee-like hop aroma. Solidly malty with clean mouthfeel. Fruity with notes of cookie malt and resiny, very bitter finish.

Bottled (thanks kenb!). Cloudy golden/orange/nutbrown mix with a creamy white mediumsized head. Aroma is strong flowery hops with hints of caramel. Flavour is flowery and fruity hops with some caramel mixed in. Finish and aftertaste is mainly flowery hops and some freshly cut grass. Pleasant one.

Copper color. Beautiful hoppy-fruity aroma, malty, nutty. A malty and nutty flavor, a lot of caramel, with some sweetness and hopped strongly but less than crazy way, excellent! Thanks Jeppe for sharing this one.
