Slightly darker amber a little hazy with a lingering white head, good citrus smell, tiny citrus taste with a good bitterness that lingers, soft feel

Another vastly underperforming IPA from the state of CT. Golden slightly reddish color with very little on the nose. No noticeable hop whatsoever which makes me wonder how they pass this off as an IPA. Not a fan of this one.

Tap at the source.
Dark golden color with a hint of orange and a small white head. Grassy astringent hint of aspirin against a bready caramel malt base. This one was rough.

12oz. bottle served in a nonic. Pours a burnished bronze hue with a hazy clarity and a loose, quarter inch, cream-colored head. Nose expresses citrus, caramel malt with light earthy/herbal notes towards the back. Taste follows nose with the addition of a kiss of ethanol in the mix the lingers lightly at the back, intermixed with the earthy/herbal character present in the nose. Mouthfeel is light-medium in body with a lively carbonation and a slight oiliness to the texture. Overall, not a bad beer, but a little too much malt for my preference.

From a keg, into a mini growler,into a cooler and now enjoyed and reviewed at home.
Pours hazed medium almond amber, moderate khaki cap, leaves a nice looking fine bubble film, and some bits of lace onm the glass.
Nose makes me think of caramel and piney hops.
Smooth and worthy IPA on the balanced side with more malty caramel notes, with the hops making their appearance later and into the finish. Drinkable, solid if uninspiring IPA...worth a try
