Light amber pour with medium white head, present intil last sip. IPA’s aren’t usually my thing, and this was no different. It was enjoyable intil the middle, then I had problems. Aroma was floral, flavor had a spicy distinct hop kick. It was surprisingly smooth to drink for the first couple of sips. It’s a good beer, just not my style.

Aug 17, 2008 Had this in a bottle at Monks in Philly. Not a big IPA like many of its competitors, this beer is very easy to drink. Bitterness dominates the hop ballance, it is a very complex malt profile.

Aug 17, 2008 12oz. bottle. Served in bottle. Swirling the bottle produces a creamy non-persistent head. Aroma of toasted malt, floral hops and a touch of orange. Taste is more of the same, yet I think a bit light on the hops for an IPA. Silky smooth light-medium body, nicely bitter, very drinkable.

does not count  Aug 16, 2008 Love this one. I got a mixed 6 and liked third coast ale, a similar one, even better.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle, aroma of pure christmas tree goodness, pours a nice cloudy golden color with a fluffy head. First tried this beer while camping drinking from a bottle and thought it was amazing now that I can properly drink it, its even better. Such a rich strong palate, a burst of hops its a really nice brew, alcohol is well hidden, substantial complexity. Very,very nice brew. Bells is just an amazing brewery.
