Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a bronze color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is mild, some herbal notes. Taste is herbal, malts, earthy, moderate bitterness. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall it drinks more like an English IPA than an American one to me.

Unfortunately, this beer has barely a hint of hops. It has a good color, and a decent odor. Its flavor is not terrible, but it just really could use more bitter of a mouthfeel for an IPA. The tasting room is a great place to sit and have a drink though.

Pours copper with a foamy white head. Aroma of caramel and hint of pine. Sweet malt flavor with caramel, citrus upfront with a very faint hop bitter ending. Overall, it's nothing spectacular, but it's not undrinkable either just a standard India Pale Ale.

When poured it has a nice golden color body with a nice foamy white head. The smell is of nice hops and sweet malt. The taste starts off with a nice hop flavor then the malt comes in, it is well balanced of hops and malt. The mouth feel is nice and smooth and overall is a average ipa

Bottled served in a shaker pint glass, how appropriate.
A - Clear golden amber with 1 finger white head with moderate retention and moderate-poor bubbly lacing
S - Earthy grassy hops with sweet malt caramel tones.
T - A pretty harsh brew, the nose makes me expect more malt sweetness and balance but be prepared for some very harsh earthy and herbal hop notes and a bit of grassy finish. I'm a hop head but this beer just doesn't have robust rich tones or a delicate balance with alcohol or malt. A brute force IPA.
M - Medium body, moderate carbonation, crisp. Moderate warming EtOH
O - Not my favorite IPA in the world, but not an entirely bad beer. Pretty harsh earthy/herbal hops, but would be a decent beer to wind down after a frustrating day at work.

Thanks to Greg for a bottle of this one. This poured out as a nice slightly hazy golden yellow color with a thin white head on top. the retention is pretty good not overly sticky though. The smell of the beer is floral with some citrusy hops filling the nose. The taste of the beer has a little more of an earthy hop flavor with a crisp finish. The mouthfeel is on the lighter side, it's drinkable and well carbonated. Overall this beer was pretty well balanced with a decent amount of flavors. Not a bad IPA.

I was at the brewery this afternoon and not only drank a pint of this beer, but I also bought a bomber of it for later on down the road.
It was presented with a finger of eggnog-colored head with good retention. Color was a deep-copper with NE-quality clarity. Nose was very floral, leaving no doubt that it was an IPA. Mouthfeel was medium with a big, grassy bitterness on the tongue. Finish was dry and refreshing. It made the trip worthwhile.
The day has finally come! I am pulling this out of my refrigerator both to make room & to further the eradication of the Bottle (!) backlog here at Chez Woody. Today is M, 06 April 2020, I am in self-quarantine & this is what's happening now!
From the Bottle: Brewed in Bird-In-Hand[,] Pennsylvania"; "India Pale Ale has a golden color with a medium maltiness and body. This style has an intense hop flavor and the aroma is very strong."
A Pop! of the cap revealed that, if nothing else, it was not dead! It let go of its built-up CO2 in an impressive off-gassing. It then proceeded to foam up through the neck, prompting me to have to begin a slow, gentle C-Line pour into the awaiting glass. It foamed up really quickly & almost uncontrollably, forming two-plus fingers of dense, foamy, rocky, bone-white head with very good retention. Color was solid-Amber (SRM = > 7, < 9) with NE-quality clarity. Nose smelled earthy, more towards an EIPA. Mouthfeel was medium. The taste was palatable, even after all of this time. Its bitterness definitely remained, bringing with it an earthiness that was well-suited to the Spring. My neighbor has been diligently at her backyard & the smell of fresh-turned earth reminds me of this beer at this stage. Finish was appropriately bitter and dry. Very nice. YMMV,
