Our dark golden IPA features a ton of American hops. Bravo, Amarillo,
and Citra hops provide a medley of citrus and stone fruit aroma, with a bit
of piny resin. Bready malt character on the palate quickly gives way to an
assertive, lasting hop bitterness.

L: 12/2021 can poured into a pint glass. Pours with a light haze and light amber color. Fairly decent head retention and some lacing.
S: hoppy profile with a good bit of pine and strong citrus. Decent bit of malt as well. Lemony
T: hop forward with a nice malt backbone. Piney and citrusy like the smell. I do get a good bit of lemon like the smell, but a big hit of grapefruit as well. Nice round bitterness
F: somewhat creamy witha nice mild combination. Very drying/ astringent

A strong offering for this GA local brewer...
The first thing that caught my attention was the bright-white head, frothy and creamy all in one. The rest is a decent member of the style. One that I’m glad have plenty on hand.

12 oz can, apparently not dated, served in a lager glass.
Pours with a lightly hazy amber body and a semi-durable white head.
The aroma suggests that this IPA has a relatively high malt load and tasting confirms this. Nonetheless, it is moderately bitter and plenty hoppy for the style.
Full bodied with medium, lightly prickly carbonation.

Savannah river IPA bottled 8/20/18 drank 10/31/18
Pours with beautiful white head that moderately shrinks and then a full layer of foam that produces lacing
Smells sweet for an IPA then odd apple pear, lemon zest, lime
First couple sips are a little malty but then the hop profile begins to show up bitter tangerine pith mandarins oranges with some hints of peach sweet stone fruits but unexpected estery banana
Finishes pretty dry and bitter with a little feel of alcohol

Poured from the tap into a pint glass. The appearance is a clear amber color with a medium sized white head. The aroma is full of hops. The taste follows the nose.

12 oz bottle, no bottling dat info that I can find
Pour slightly darker then typical Amber, moderate cap leaves some spotty lacing.
Fresh and rainy hpped up nose.
Solid IPA, waves of solid hop notes, with resins, grapefruit and and an ample whole wheat malt under layer in place.
Worthy IPA
