Notes:
Brewed with some of our favorite new hop varieties from our favorite hop farmers - Citra, Simcoe, Chinook, Ekuanot, Azacca, and Galaxy. Electric Jellyfish is filled with a bright tropical citrus character along with notes of orange, mango, lychee, and a floral backbone. The Jellyfish is a hazy new school IPA focusing on the juicy hop flavor and aroma while keeping the bitterness balanced and refreshing.

I'm spoiled with IPAs, being from New England, but this is a very good example of that style.
If you love IPAs, find yourself in Texas, and see this on the menu, get it. It has a similar cloudy, juicy taste of one you'll find in the Northeast.

This is arguably one of the best IPAs in Texas. A definite rival of Yellow Rose. The last time I had an IPA this good from this corner of the US, was Ghost In The Machine.
Mouthfeel is smooth, citrusy & sweet. Foggy appearance with excellent head-retention. Very drinkable.

Electric Jellyfish was the best beer I found in Austin (and in Texas as well). It is more like the New England IPAs that I like, and would give most of the more notable breweries in the tri-state area a run for their money. Reminds me of early Vermont IPAs.

Juice bomb with slight haze. Reminds me of Heady Topper, but with a more bitter finish. Would drink this every day. Had on tap but this is a beer that should be canned. UPDATE: Still one of my favorite American IPAs produced in Texas, but their WTF is Juice is equally yummy.

Not being an especially big fan of IPAs, I'm a bit biased, but I was intrigued after reading much about this one. It's not bad. I could easily imagine IPA fans enjoying this one.

I wanted to like it more. I don't hate it and I appreciate the grapefruit aspect, but overall I'm not loving the beer. Too much floral on this one. It's as if I am eating a jasmine vine with a squirt of grapefruit. It looked great for a hazy IPA. Many will love it I'm sure, just not for me.

My favorite IPA in Austin. I have tried IPAs from about 30 different microbreweries as well as many others from other cities and this is still my favorite.
