OUR REAL DEAL HOP BOMB. Satisfaction IPA opens up with a pronounced fruity and floral nose, followed by an ample snap of bitterness and a lingering hop finish of grapefruit pith.
THIS BEER IS FOR TRUE HOPS FANATICS and it happens to be our staff's favorite.

Poured into a becher pint glass, the appearance was a semi-burnt orange color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a moderate pace. Light stringy lace. The aroma had a great dose of citrusy and piney hops, sweet and bitter with a nice malt base trying to coincide nicely. The flavor leaned into the sweetness of the hops and blended fairly nice in this department. Nice little hoppy aftertaste without the burn and reflected in the finish. The feel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Good carbonation and the ABV felt appropriate as directed by the brewer. Overall, pretty nicely done AIPA. I’d go at this one again.

Very nice floral and citrus smell to this one. Taste matched the smell very well. Nice haze to this, not clear. Will definitely return for more of this next time I visit the area.

Not enough floral characters. Finished way to bitter for my liking, I was hoping for a better outcome.
