A: Pours a golden color with an appeasing pure white head. Pleasant retention that matches the style.
S: A rush of floral and earthy aromas engulf the nose. This smells more like that of an English IPA rather than an American IPA.
T: This is much more subtle in the hop aspect. The malts are present, but they do more to help the flavor than impair it. Do to the lack of hop bitterness associated with most American IPAs, the malts contribute a pleasant and complex character.
M: The malts create a chewy feel, and the carbonation is quite pleasant. Not much of a the hoppy dry, bitter texture that is expected.
O: This would be a perfect English IPA, but it lacks the resemblance of a true American style. However, it is still a unique brew and is worthy of a try.
