The most stout IPA I have tasted and I cant get enough of it. Excellent taste and color.

This is a very underrated IPA in my opinion. Light-colored but packs a punch with flavor. It has a very herbal fruity taste with moderate bitterness. Rich, velvety finish. I think I have overlooked this beer too often.

UPDATED: AUG 17, 2007 The first thing i thought of when opening this bottle was green apples. Overtook my senses. And it does have a very fruity aroma to it as well. Bought it just because it was a new IPA i haven’t tryed yet, and at $1.49, ill probably buy it again.

Braudog (4473) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - MAR 26, 2006
On tap at Crescent Moon Alehouse, 3/25/06: Light orange color with just a wisp of a head. Nice chewy hop character with a little citric bitter twist to finish it off. Very good.

SledgeJr (3579) - Omaha, Nebraska, USA - FEB 28, 2004
UPDATED: SEP 13, 2007 Fine example of the style: good finishing hop aroma, but not dry hopped as far as I can tell. Solid measure of boiling hops. Copper/amber in appearance. Good head retention. UPDATE 9/13/7: Nitro pushed version of IPA on tap at the brewpub. Smoother and creamier. Tiny bubbles and thick head. Still a delicious beer.

eboats (1054) - Omaha, Nebraska, USA - FEB 20, 2006
Pours orange with a white head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is juicy, sweet citrus orange and lemon. Flavor is sweet citrus orange and lemon, but can’t match up to the aroma which is top tier for IPAs. Finish is rather light with some hops. Very smooth, but the aroma promises much more than is delivered.

Cletus (6025) - Connecticut, USA - JUN 26, 2009
Pours gold with a thin white head. Smells of citrus, some spice. Tastes of wildflowers, citrus, grassy, hay, some bitterness on the finish.

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - DEC 8, 2009
Bottle. Pours a golden body with a white head. Nice hop notes of grass, earth pine, and some light citrus tones. Pine y body with a mild bitterness. Thin and quaff able. Nice ale.
