Aug 18, 2009 Hazy after the pour, this IPA smells fantastic. Nose candy for a hop head. The mouth feel is creamy and the finish smooth with a slight hop bitterness. Very well balanced, it can stand up in flavor to some double IPA’s and is as refreshing as an american pale ale.

Aug 14, 2009 Pours a nice, slightly hazy golden amber with a fairly thick off-white head. Aroma is fairly strong and quite hoppy, promising a good IPA. Flavor is strongly hoppy but only slightly bitter and has just a whisper of sweetness. Texture is smooth and fizzy, quite lively on the tongue.

Aug 13, 2009 Amazing brew. Although Oberon is king amongst alot of my friends, this is the best Bell’s brew I’ve had. Can drink these again and again and still feels new and exciting.
Perfectly hoppy befitting it’s IPA style. Love the packaging.
Pours about half-finger head, great lacing and mouthfeel. Floral accents and a great bite to it. One of my favorites.

Aug 13, 2009 This has been and will remain one of the best IPA I have ever had. The balance between floral hops and bitters is just point on. One of the better examples of what can happen when hops are done right. The flavor of the beer leave you with little to no alch feel. If you are new to IPAs and want to start at the top this is one of them

Aug 11, 2009 This stuff runs out of the taps in my neck of the woods at the local downtown pubs like water. Though i’m not a huge fan of this ipa it is a good go to when your trying to figure out what to drink next. Has a bitter hop bite that i’m not fond of but does leave a semi pleasant aftertaste. Put it on your to try list!

Aug 11, 2009 The first time I had this I was unexcited. Perhaps it was the unappealing packaging. On tap, I had an epiphany. This is a great beer! Intensely hoppy but not overpowering by any means. Floral hops are there for flavor, not for hop’s sake. Full, yet refreshing. Very complex, yet balanced for its style. Absolutely a "go to" beer. An IPA by which to judge others.
