can to glass; not a hop bomb but not my thing. slight citrus and medicinal aroma. taste has slight citrus - mostly grapefruit and hops. nah

Pine and caramel malts on the nose, pours a clear light amber with a full white head. Nice clean hop flavor, with a good balance. Slightly slick mouthfeel, nice lingering hop finish. If you’re a fan of the more balanced IPA’s, then this would be one to pick up.

Long Island, NY - 12 oz. bottle poured a translucent amber color. I've never actually had a full bottle of this, only a small sample cup. The aroma was brilliant, citrus, floral hop galore. Taste was perfectly balanced between hops and malts. Would drink this forever....awesome brew! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

12 oz bottle pours a clear orange with two-finger white head and good lacing. The smell hit me a foot away before the first sip. Aroma is full of caramel malts, citrus hops (especially grapefruit), and some good dank earthiness. Taste is bitter at the start and finish, with lots of sweetness in the middle. Body is medium with below average carbonation. Mouthfeel is slightly sticky and alcohol is mostly hidden. A well balanced IPA I’ll be sure to try again.

Tap at Pizza Port. Not sure why my wife got this instead of the house beers. Pours a hazy golden with fairly big white head. Aroma is earthy with a bit of sweet corn. Taste is slightly dank and then has loads if fresh soil. Some more sweetness but then it falls off. The mouth feel is very thin and leaves a lot to be desired.

Next to Zombie Dust, my favorite IPA/APA. A unique finish like non other! A constant in my fridge. Great job Uinta! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone so go have a DIPA!

Not available in Louisiana. 7.3% ABV Aroma nice and citrusy with moderate floral notes Appearance a nice hazy golden color with foamy white 2 finger head and nice lacing Taste defiantly citrus and spice flavors from the hops. Mild sweet malt at the beginning that quickly give way to the hop and bitter end The 7.3% ABV is well hidden Mouthfeel. Medium with a mild lingering mid tongue bitterness Overall a good IPA. A style if beer that I am becoming more palatable for. Easily able to appreciate the style ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bright hop aroma, gorgeous head that leaves perfectly symmetrical rings down the glass as it's consumed. Perfect balance of fruit and IPA bite. A staple beer for me. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Aromatic hops dominate the nose, mostly orange and other citrus, with other floral/pine/grass notes typical of western states IPAs. Similar flavor, but more intensity in each element. I am concious of the bitter-receiving tastebuds on the distal posterior of my tongue are lit up through a very long finish, but not biting or unpleasant; also aided by the underlying malt to balance. The malts are sweet, this is also something I had to conciously think about, as the brew doesn’t come off sweet nor bitter due to stupendous balance. Tasty stuff that offhand I’d put into my top 20 IPAs at very least.

Bottle. I usually end up rating about the same as everyone else, but I am far from think this is a 97. Maybe I will have to try again, but this one was unforgettable and the taste was slightly off...maybe the heavy malt profile instead of hops? Nope this one was not for me.
