Fashioned after the famous ales from Burton-On-Trent which took on such bold character after surviving the long, rolling voyage from London to Calcutta in the days of the Empire. This is an amber colored masterpiece in the world of beer styles.

IPA pours a darker bronze color, with a small, but long lasting, lacing head. Aroma is bitter, earthy, very malty. Flavor is bold, pretty bitter, very malty, earthy. Good feel. Overall, its an earthier IPA, nice bold flavors, pretty bitter.

Aroma, hops, caramel, veggie.
Appearance, clear copper ,decent white head.
Taste: basic resinous ipa ,kind of harsh, ash , flowers ,pine. not enough sweetness to balance.
Feel, medium low carbonation; below average body. A little flat.
Overall....almost so-so, not my type of IPA.

Aroma is citrus/fruit, caramel and mild tea. The flavor is citrus, English malts, fruit, tea, hops and a mix of mild bitterness and slight heat in the finish.

The best part is the smell. The taste is harsh hops that is pretty bitter and stays on the tounge. Not good

Very little hop character in the aroma and taste, and just not very pleasant overall.
