SRM darker than average for an ipa. Light brown, auburn, amber kind of feels to the color. Aroma was mild for an ipa.

Taste was ok, a little bit of simcoe hops I would surmise, amarillo, but less than a serious ipa would offer up. For a chain restaurant, its ok. Nothing 'bad' but I could do without the excessive amount of crystal and maybe even brown malt in this one. Just took the hops down a notch, and they were already in light supply for style.

On tap at the pub, 11/9/11.

A-Pour is a clear honey amber with good sticky lacing and a frothy white head.

S-Sweet malt, light hops.

T-Sweet and citrusy, nice bitter hops well balanced with malt. Quite tatys.

M-Light side of medium, good carbonation.

O-Very tasty IPA, a fine example of the style.

Haven't had any Rock Bottoms since I was in the Midwest (Milwaukee). Thought I'd give this a try while I was tasting at the San Diego International Beer Festival.

A little darker than most ipas. Came off an opaque kind of brown if that makes sense. Aroma was disappointing, seemed like they put just a smidge of simcoe and amarillo in just to say they did. Taste, unexceptional, almost boring. Good? Sure. Good enough for a place that is a restaurant first, chain second, brewery third. Would I drink it again? If I was at the restaurant, yeah, but I wouldn't go out of my way for this. Was too heavy on the caramel which drowned out the hops and bitterness.
