UPDATED: JAN 22, 2019 Well balanced and sessionable. Always gets over descibed. The safest bet when the bar you’re at doesn’t have many craft options.

UPDATED: JAN 18, 2019 This IPA is one of the best IPAs of it's kind: average IPA. It is balanced and goes down easy but it doesn't do any overly interesting. Not a bad beer either way.

UPDATED: DEC 28, 2018 This beer lives up to the accolades. Incredibly well-balanced. Aroma of grapefruit and slight sweetness from the malts. Taste is more grapefruit and overripe tangerines. Minimal bitterness to finish. Easy to see why this is such a legendary beer. My go to IPA.

16 oz can. Smells piney. Amber colored with an orange tint, clear. Nice blend of sweet and bitter, tastes of grapefruit, malt and pine. Tastes of malts, followed by resinous hops. Slightly bitter but clean finish.

UPDATED: NOV 17, 2018 First American IPA I had 25 years ago. The benchmark by which all American IPAs are measured. I guess, that's all that needs to be said.

Strong grapefruit flavor with citrus and pine lingering in the background. Very nice smooth tasting beer. Bitter finish. Very well put together. Make sure it is very cold than the crisp flavors come out. Well done!

UPDATED: NOV 11, 2018 On tap at One Mile House. Pours orange gold. Pine, grapefruit, pineapple, touch of papaya, orange peel, nice lingering bitterness. Good body. Very nice.

11/4/18 (Chicago): Canned 9/25/18, purchased at Bell's General Store earlier in the day, 6 pack cans $11.50 w/ tax. Can poured into pint glass. Slighty dark golden color, puffy head, thick lacing, solid carbonation. Citrus pine aroma, sharp pleasant, sweet. Very well balanced, citrus pine taste, dry hops, bitter nice. Dry creamy mouth feel, solid presence, smooth drinking. Overall excellent IPA, glad I stopped at Bell's Brewery for this one!

Poured cloudy golden yellow, very heavy grapefruit aroma. Very smooth, little to no bite on the backend. I’d describe it as a malty taste which makes it different. Good beer... for an IPA. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draft into tulip. Hard to beat this beer and it’s all it’s hyped up to be. Great aroma of pine. Generous lacing. Very light citrus mouthfeel. Smooth. All IPAs need to live up to this one.
