Enjoy the clover honey hue and tropical nose. Simultaneously punchy and soothing with a big body and a finish that boasts pineapple and grapefruit. Flower Power is hopped and dry-hopped five different times throughout the brewing and fermentation process.

Growler Purchased at Skibbo's

Pours a golden yellow into my allagsh flute. Nice 2 finger head the fades quickly. Minimal lacing.

Smells piney and citrusy.

Taste is initally sweet followed by citrus and finishes bitter. The sweetness and citrus is very quick.

Medium body with a nice amount of carbonation.

It is a nice drinker but at 8% abv not a session beer. I would but this again

Draft Ithaca Flower Power IPA at restaurant dinner in early March, 2024. This is a very good un-cloudy IPA with a good balance, some malt, but featuring hop flavor with enough bitterness for this consumer. It was fine with our dinner.

Poured from 12-ounce bottle into a tulip glass. Hazy dark orange in color, with a substantial white head that left scads of sticky lacing as it settled. This sample was quite malt-forward, with aromas and flavors of light caramel and grain alongside the floral and tropical hop notes. Medium bodied, with a resiny and bitter finish. Overall, a very good beer.

An attractively thick head sits atop a lovely hazy orange body. Floral aroma with some honey, lemon blossoms & pine tar. Mildly sweet with a fairly bitter finish. Hoppy flavor with citrus, pear & pine tar. Nice feel. I’m not a fan of IPS’s but this one is good

Pours a rich gold with a rocky white two finger head. Light citrus aroma, maybe some what floral. probably has more but my nose sucks. Taste shows some citrus peel a bit of grassiness and some biscuity malt. Light/medium bodied with a dry finish and mild carbonation. Very tasty warm weather IPA. I’ll be getting this again.

Ahhhhh. I get the west coast pine and grapefruit notes, with a touch of new school floral character. Just the right bitterness to finish it off. This was a fun one.
